The jays are 3-0 up against the Yankees but only have one rbi - the other two came off wild pitches with bases loaded.

User felicity if you’re around I’m watching the Cubs game & Mark Prior just had a mound visit
― Roman Anthony gets on his horse (gyac), Friday, 5 April 2024 18:58 (one hour ago) link
I was at lunch! But that's exciting, I will review. I am sure it will be in the MLB condensed replay of the game ;)

I mean it might be notable that they had a mound visit in the first two innings! I wonder how many people in the crowd are wearing his shirt.

I remember, it was freezing when we were there in March. Wind is No Joke. At least the hotdog sellers will be doing a brisk trade, except for when Morel is up to bat.It’s too bad Ohtani didn’t hit his first Dodger home run at Wrigley, they’d have thrown it back on the field for free and they could have avoided the unnecessary pr bungle.

those dangly earrings that a lot of the dudes on the rays wear make me nervous, feels like someone's lobe is going to get ripped out during a slide

My thoughts exactly! Throw it back and be legends. It is wonderful thinking of Mark Prior on the mound at Wrigley again too.
― felicity, Friday, 5 April 2024 20:25 (six months ago) link
xp I was there in March two years ago (great city btw, can understand exactly why Imanaga fell in love with it) and the wind was like a free chemical peel every day. 😭 Wrigley is on the list for sure.

After seeing Millers first game, was not expecting him to have gotten lit up today before I could even turn the game on. His stuff is just filthy.

Rays Rockies is wild, Rockies were winning 6-2 going into the top of the ninth, and now the Rays have scored 5 in the top of the ninth and they’ve batted around. However if any Rockie (Rocky?) can walk it off or force extras it’s probably Nolan Jones.

Yeah that particular song really nails a specific era in Chicago music history, I don't know what else you can call it except Northside hand clap music, a really really specific subgenre influenced by probably both The blues Brothers and centerfield by John fogerty and channeled through Steve goodman after one too many Bud lights in the bleachers. Respect to goodman, but it's not a good one.

Teoscar Hernandez has 14 RBI in 10 games. I'd normally just call that a fluke, but if he stays in the lineup and spends the year hitting behind Mookie/Freeman/Shoei and Will Smith, I wouldn't be shocked if he ends up knocking in 150.

yamamoto had another rough start to the game since about the fifth batter has more or less been mowing down the cubs. guys swing and miss on his fastball a lot and his breaking stuff is nasty

The shadows are definitely benefiting both pitchers; some uncharacteristically ugly hacks from good hitters esp in last few innings
― Roman Anthony gets on his horse (gyac), Saturday, 6 April 2024 21:32 (six months ago) link
^ I’ve revised this opinion after seeing the Cubs reliever waste Wicks good start. They should have left him in to get the third out!

This giveaway is happening today & they spent most of Ohtani’s at bat cutting to the crowd wearing these (Pat Hughes sweater day giveaway). There was an amazing twenty second shot of Pat Hughes putting a real Pat Hughes sweater on over his giveaway one.

I'm working on a Saturday, boo me. Anyways, I turned on the Pirates game because of the Joey Bart talk in this thread. He has stuck out looking and then swinging at both at bats that I saw. Including bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th. Pirates fans chatting Joey, Joey as I was just laughing because he can't hit. That being said, I'm rooting for him but his new fans will find out soon enough. He might hit enough not to be cut but not much more than that.

I didn't jinx him as I wrote that after his strikeout in the 10th. 😀
They still won tho

xps Patrick Bailey didn’t exactly set the world alight with his bat last season either
― Roman Anthony gets on his horse (gyac), Saturday, 6 April 2024 23:38 (six months ago) link
Patrick Bailey is a much better catcher than Joey Bart, arguably sure. The Giants picked the right guy. It really was between Murphy and Bart which is yet to be determined.
― Bee OK, Saturday, 6 April 2024 23:45 (six months ago) link
I like Tom Murphy a lot. I don’t really get the inclination of fans to follow players who’ve been traded off the team and hope for them to fail. Mariners fans were gloating over Kelenic’s poor spring training. Unless the player leaves under a cloud it just seems unnecessary.
― Roman Anthony gets on his horse (gyac), Saturday, 6 April 2024 23:48 (six months ago) link
I said I'm rooting for Joey Bart, it's not me to wish ill well unless they become a Dodger.
