Those Royals teams were fun to watch unless your team was playing against them.  Just good AB after good AB.  They had alligator blood.

[Sbbruin 21835]

First pitch double by Shohei.  Big series against the snakes.  Freddie’s back too.

[Sbbruin 21835]

Haha, and just like that Freddie homers!  Nice!

[Sbbruin 21835]

Crazy game so far. Dodgers score 2 in the top of the first, Snakes answer with 2, now Dodgers with 3 straight singles and Shohei beaned in the top 2.

Kershaw and Gallen combined 4 IP, 8 ER

(Kershaw leaves with injury after 1+)

5-5 bottom 3. DBacks still batting with runners on the corners 

[TheStoicPaisano 9922]

Even got a Flying Wallenda  ref.

First major leaguer ever to 43/43.  On pace for 50/50

I'm not seeing how a PR was allowed by the umpires to enter the game if Sanchez never established himself as a runner?  If the Marlins tell the umpire "Pache running for Sanchez," the ump cannot approve that if Sanchez has yet to become a runner.  

We've also seen guys get hit by a pitch, injured, and replaced by a PR without touching first.   

I think everyone fucked that up, and the umpires didn't know what to do.

did they ever say if the ump acknowledged the PR?  i'm guessing they didn't.  also a HBP is a dead balll. ball 4 isn't.

[Sbbruin 21835]

One run game.  Duuuude.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Pham & Grossman claimed by KC.

Yuli as well, their average age is going way up today.

And those three were on 3 pitches.  First time ever in Dodger history they’ve open with 3 HRs.

[Derka 6162]

dynamite play by the jake bauers to win the game. devin williams was all over the place and loaded the bases with a bb, bb, hbp before being saved by his 1B. really great play to end a game.

Phillips closes this out.  Huge first 2 by the Dogs.  Dbacks needed to win 3 of 4.  That’s gone.

It was a beat down.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Watch the E60 about Galarraga.

Most of you only know one franchise, this is good shit. 

[Sbbruin 21835]

Ohtani just stole 2nd and 3rd after stealing one earlier. 44/46

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Freddie just fucking murdered that ball.

Quote

The overall OPS in the American League this year is .714. That’s historically low… it’s 20 points lower than last season’s, and lower than all but two seasons since the 1994 strike.

The White Sox did not have a batter in Monday’s lineup with anything CLOSE to a .714 OPS.

1. Nicky Lopez, .593
2. Corey Julks, .634
3. Andrew Benintendi, .654
4. Gavin Sheets, .682
5. Korey Lee, .592
6. Zack DeLoach, .419
7. Dominic Fletcher, .532
8. Miguel Vargas, .573
9. Jacob Amaya, .397

 

[Scraps 13561]

That reminds me of back in like 2012 when they stopped putting BA up on the jumbotron at MMP next to the lineup and started putting up .OPS numbers to make it "look" better I guess.

"Oh wow Brian Bixler has a .582 OPS he must be awesome!!"

Meh. He didn’t actually go to Michigan. The only game I was conflicted on was Florida since they’re my 2nd favorite program, but with how shitty Napier is I’m hoping for a 56-0 win so UF gets rid of him faster. The only time I’d ever actually root against Texas is if they played UTRGV.

[Derka 6162]

conflicted on who to root for between texas and florida? and you’re rooting for texas because florida has a bad coach? so if florida was good you might root for them? but that’s so unlike you?!?

[Helobious 9451]

I was always going to root for UT, but I was going to hope for a down to the wire game so UF could still have good momentum to build their program back. That’s all out the window now though.

Mlb Tonight asking Snell about pizza that is named after him in Washington. One of the ingredients is mozzarella cheese (durrr).

Harold: "I just wrote down mozzarella cheese. I have never had a pizza with mozzarella cheese on it....canadian bacon yeah."


Wtf kind of pizza is this idiot eating

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

He probably thinks mozzarella is just called white cheese.

If Harold can't figure out slugging percentage, there's no way he's going to master cheese.

Smartest dude there was SS....he was like this shits about to turn bad I am getting the fuck out of here lol

[VirginiaLonghorn 4769]

O’s scored 4 runs that inning without a hit.

BTW, replay clearly showed Benintendi calling for the ball .. 3B Vargas earned a black eye and an early shower.

Edited September 4 by VirginiaLonghorn

[VirginiaLonghorn 4769]

ChiSox got the message.  In B8, Santander lifted a pop up to the same spot behind 3B.  This time, the 3B, SS, and LF converged … and all three peeled off like a Blue Angels maneuver.  Basehit.

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

Mets ended any drama in this one against Bos.
