MLB regular season thread - Part 7

Did it go farther than McGwire's way back when?

Big Mac's was a few rows deeper in the 5th deck. Dickerson reached the 2nd row.

Altough the SD feed screws it up and does not show where it was exactly, Sportsnet one was clear.

Baez cuts that in half.

K-Rod enters a jam, 4-2 game, bases loaded with 2 outs and Betts at the plate.

Betts grounds out, no 2013 ALCS nightmare scenario for Tigers.

The Orioles latest way to win a game:

Machado safe at first on error by pitcher Lyles, Jones scored, Schoop to second.

Saw the video of it and it was worse than I imagined. Should have been an inning ending DP, instead Lyles bobbles it, goes home and then the catcher can't hang on at the plate.

That was very impressive.

wow

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

LOL the D'Backs are awful in every possible way. First time watching them this year.

 

[KirkOut]

wow

um...has he ever even *seen* Ventura fight? cuz I have and it isn't a pretty sight

Was thinking the same thing.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Sorry Kayla.

Can't wait until some team overpays for Madson. Ryan Dull should have been the closer post-allstar break.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Rangers gain a huge game on the Astros. The type of win that can fuel a team, that's now 3 straight for them.

Cubs have come back to tie it in the 9th. Bryant getting thrown out at 2nd may have cost them a lead by now.

 

[Halladay]

Hellickson awesome again tonight.

shake harder boy!

 

[Bad News Bears]

Now that O'Day is back, do the O's just push forward with their amazing pen, or do they try and sell of Brach and recoup some assets into a pretty bad farm system?

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Ughhh Ryan Madson suckssss

 

[SJSharksfan39]

I will be so happy if Panik and Pence somehow return to this line up this week. I'm so tired of Pena already. Williamson can stay as a bench player. Why are the Giants so bad post all star break.

 

[Terry Yake]

it was so obvious the A's were going to blow that game

just trade madson and make dull the closer already

 

[Pwnasaurus]

Hell yeah, a Ted Lilly jersey!

Ha ha yeah and a knock off at that.

That jersey screams "Hey I've been on this bandwagon for at least 5 years!"

 

[darko]

That Dickerson homer was an absolute bomb. I've never seen a ball land in that spot.

Home run tracker has it listed as 452. Not sure how correct that is but that looked bigger.

 

[AtlantaWhaler]

You will now be treated to Braves/Twins for the next couple days.

Make sure you have room on your DVR's

Why bother? You need an All Star pen with the starting pitching the O's have.

Not sure if serious.

Duquette buys every year, even in years like last year (the ill-fated Parra for Davies trade) and 2013 (a certain trade you probably want to forget) when they don't get in. No way they sell off any player off their roster now for futures. Plus, Brach will still have 2 years of control after the season.

Hard to believe the Dodgers are now just 2 1/2 games behind SF.

shake harder boy!

The Gyorko uprising continues, 2 run homer off of Syndergaard. 3-0 Cards.

 

[Elvis P]

This has prob already been posted, but the Commish is thinking about limiting the use of RPs. This would be awesome. 1 per inning and 3 per game would be perfect.

Cards devil magic inhabiting Gyorko

Or maybe stop throwing him first pitch fastballs. Homered off Kenley Jansen on a first pitch fastball and now Thor. He wasn't supposed to get many at bats vs RHP this year. Those are some premium RHP he took deep on first pitch fastballs.
