Gamble’s quote is at least sensical and profound in its own way. I think the Indians social media guy was just having a stroke.

Yankees are having a bad day. So far a 6 run 6th inning for the Phillies. 

[Scraps 13562]

Scherzer too apparently. Pitched 1 inning then was removed.

Another one bites the dust

A phrase I never expected to hear this season “Sandoval with an infield hit.”. 2020, weird shit, man.

Castellanos has gotten off to a huge start.  He's starting to look like a poor man's JD Martinez.

When I was living in Africa it seemed like the Tigers were always playing the only game that came on at a decent hour over there so I got had to watch a shit ton of their games in those days.  Liked him a lot back then and happy to see him with a good start this season.

Hell of a throw by the left fielder Taylor of the Dodgers to throw out the tying runner for the Padres at home plate and preserve the win for LA.

Awesome ending to the Dodgers v Padres.  Play at the plate to tie, he is....OUT!  Dodgers win 7-6.

[Fudge Nuggets 19206]

Hell of a game in San Diego.  Still fuck the Dodgers.

Padres got a good young squad coming on though,

Padres are going further in the postseason than the Dodgers.

[Sbbruin 21861]

7-2 road trip, and we still are struggling with some of our boppers.  Bellinger hitting .170, Muncy hitting .176, and Turner hitting .235.  Get those guys going and it’s lights out on the west...again.

[Fudge Nuggets 19206]

Padres going to spank yo ass.

[Fudge Nuggets 19206]

One run game in Seattle going into top of the ninth.  Close it down Mariners.

That throw by the Dojer was a dart, overshadows the Cubs quietly kicking ass.

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I like the 7 inning double headers. I had the Marlins game on in the background yesterday and I didn’t feel like it took anything away from the game. Double headers are weird to begin with. Seems like you should try to shorten it as much as possible without ruining the integrity of the game.

 

Also, I don’t hate this extra inning rule as much as I thought I would, but I would hate it a lot less if they started it in the 11th or 12th inning. Make the 10th inning normal baseball, and put the runner on 2nd starting in the 11th. Kinda like college football version of OT for MLB. 

[Scraps 13562]

I hate both of your opinions lol

The only reason I bring it up is because I’m pretty sure both are here to stay. They can act like they’re “trying to out” all they want, but I bet they keep both.  

[ss13 1832]

3-run yack by Sano in top 1. They’ll be 11-2 after this one, Pitt a stellar 2-11.

Other than the MIA & STL outbreaks, has a single MLB player been ruled out with COVID since the regular season began? USA Today tracker shows none since July 22. Votto and Moustakas had concerns but turned out negative. Teams don't have to disclose names, but it would probably leak after a few days.

[ss13 1832]

Damn, Twins’ usually reliable pen gave up 3 in 8/9 to blow it. 

[clapclapclap 9000]

Who would have guessed that 2 weeks in the Marlins would have the best record in baseball?

CG, 4 H, ER, 0 BB, 10 K for Dylan Bundy. Balt never got a lot of that from him.

Lol more like Eloy gave him an inside the park homer. What in the hell was he doing lol

[MC Fresh Breath 4074]

Would think most inside the park HR’s are accompanied by some miscues.

[Scraps 13562]

Typically not horribly missing the ball and then ending up like a tuna in a fishing net

[shadow_operative 15932]

that probably should have been ruled a ground rule double, but it was fun to watch either way.

MLB announced tonight that the Phillies and Marlins will play a 7 game series in 5 days.
