2018 MLB Regular Season Thread - Part 4

Damn, Bob Uecker is a savage. He's in the TV booth broadcasting right now and the conversation went like this.

Brian: Wonder what Marlins fans think every time they look at a box score and they see what Ozuna, Yelich and Stanton are doing this year.

Bob: What fans? That's gotta be a big plus for Yelich too. Playing in front of people.

Pirates jump out to a 3-0 lead. Pablo Reyes with a 3 run homer.

Cards quickly cut it to 6-3.

 

[Elvis P]

Yeah, with Davis is all or nothing. Reminds me of Rob Deer back in the early 90's.

No, it's nothing or nothing. He's hitting .168 with 16 dingers. Your post was correct when he was hitting 40 dingers and striking out. Now he just strikes out.

Phillies, can you stop being useless?

Phillies, can you stop being useless?

They've been awful for like 5-6 weeks. No Nola in this series. So don't count on it. Rockies up 6-1.

Gyorko grounds into a DP with the bases loaded down 3.

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

Man that looked like it was foul (Gyorko's DP.)

What was Jerry DiPoto thinking when he traded for Ryon Healy? He's not a good hitter for a middle infielder, much less a 1st baseman.

The moment Nelson Cruz stepped up to the plate just knew he was going to go deep of Anderson.

Nervous time for St. Louis. Down 3 in the 7th inning, Rockies up big.

The Phillies season never was the same after this:

Yankees win big, get a step closer to AL WC HFA.

Severino, for all his 2nd half woes, will get a shot at 20 wins in his last reg. season start.

well the m's are winning that trade so far

pagan has been pure garbage

 

[darko]

Carpenter tossed

Meanwhile the Cubs are down 6-0.

Again, this is shaping up to be an ugly scenario for the Cards. The Cubs will need wins this weekend to clinch division when STL visits.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Looks like the Dbacks owner abolished the "only Dbacks fans behind the plate" rule this year.

 

[Terry Yake]

brett anderson is awful

i know A's starting pitchers are close to being an extinct species but i hope to god he's left off the playoff roster should they advance

And the Brewers are up 9-4. The Cubs are famous for their September Swoons and playoff chokes.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Both the A's and M's have a full games worth of hits and runs and they've only played 3 innings.

 

[Unholy Diver]

Meanwhile in the NL, there's still a possibility (as unlikely as it may be) of a 4-way tie:

Couldn't the Cubs slide in and make it a 5 way dance too? They are about to be 1/2 game up on the Brewers here soon

 

[c9777666]

Gyorko grounds into a DP with the bases loaded down 3.

That was the turning point of the game

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

ARZ takes the lead in the 7th.

Cubs would have to lose every game to be in that scenario.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Palka wins it for White Sox in a come from behind victory in bottom of 9th

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Brad Boxberger can become very popular in Denver and St. Louis if he can close out the Dodgers here.

My goodness gracious, one of the worst throws to 2B by a catch ever and Hernandez is now at 3B with 0 outs.
