dumb question.... and I KNOW its stupid.  but I just signed up for ESPN again to start the NFL season so I havent seen any ESPN games all year.

 

heres the dumb question, please dont kill me if its already been answered. 

why is ESPN not showing the strike zone box?  

They usually do.

i didn’t watch tonight.

i’m assuming the camera at this park wasn’t lined up where it normally is in MLB parks or they otherwise didn’t have the right technology to be able to it tonight

They were trying to mimic the LLWS broadcast. They should’ve extended it to mimicking an actual LL game. 6 inning exhibition, make it even more inclusive for the little leaguers. Let them be the batboys and get foul balls, let them shag BP, etc. Playing a rigged game that actually counts and also messes with the travel schedule is beyond stupid.

Oh I see, if 6 innings the yankees would have won.

Teams rotate. Teams play shit like this. Sorry it was your team that lost tonight, but suck it up. Think teams like opening up in Japan?

And let the kids just relax and watch the game. Everyone enjoyed it but you.

Forget Judge, I’m more interested in how many times anyone has faced a starter for the 4th time in a game this year. 
there have only been 25 CGs all year.

If you haven't seen it yet, here is an 8-9-4-2 DP.

Marlins Pull Off Rare 8-9-4-2 Double Play Against Mets (msn.com)

First player ever to start for 1 team and then finish with other.   Well,....here's the story.

MLB history in the making! Red Sox catcher Danny Jansen can become the FIRST player to start a game for one team and finish with another Monday (msn.com)
