  1. Another couple insurance runs would be nice. Two 10+ Games in a row will play havoc with Pythagoras.
  2. Beau Brieske has a 0.00 ERA! I feel more confident now.
  3. I was following this game and feeling glum and my son said “let’s watch episode five of FALLOUT on Prime” and we did and it was great and I missed these two innings. I’m happy this happened though; it’s nice scoring runs like a normal team.
  4. This really sucks. We’re actually going to have to score runs if we hope to win this game.
  5. Curses. Foiled again. 2-0. AZ.
  6. The calm before the storm…
  7. I predict the offense scores no runs.
  8. Can you place bets anywhere on when this Skenes guy blows out his arm? I know it’s unethical to do this, but I’m just wondering if it’s legal because lots of unethical things are legal. I’m not wishing ill on him. It’s just that there aren’t many human bodies made to endure this kind of punishment and injury seems inevitable.
  9. Save the staff. Let Inge pitch!
  10. I saw a game at Chase a few years ago. It was hot in September and 100° but they still opened the roof and it stayed cool. Kind of sterile like a mall, but a really great mall. Wide concourses with ample elbow room, so clean you could eat off the floor, great food, terrific staff. Every step of the way, parking lot, ticket booth, hostesses, just top flight.
  11. Pinch me I’m dreaming!
  12. This sucks but what was really painful was back in the day when we had a future Hall of Fame hitter and a lineup filled with all stars who were befuddled when a AAA rookie came up and they couldn’t hit him because they had “never seen his stuff.“
  13. They couldn’t score run starting with a guy on second base against a pitcher who in 17 innings has an astronomical ERA and has walked 17. Maybe he was due for a correction
  14. Game is oppressively rapid.
  15. I predict a cloudburst of runs for the Tigers this inning, maybe two.
  16. First hit and I was sure Baez would ground into a DP and he did.
  17. I have the radio package and I’m out of town up in the mountains a couple hours away from home and I guess the radio app is confused. I’m not getting any real ads only MLB history pieces and public service announcements. Kind of weird.
  18. For me in the mountain time zone 6:40 PM is 4:40 PM. and with games being a lot shorter now that gives me plenty of time to do something else.
  19. Is the 6:40 PM start a nod to parents with children inducing them to go to games on school nights in the hopes of generating a love of baseball with the next generation? Now that games aren’t routinely 3 1/2 to 4 hours long, part of that resistance to bringing a child to a game has been circumvented. Maybe it has something to do with making the most of daylight?
