It's a Bautista Bomb!

Hell of a first for the Yankees.

<font color=goldenrod>Pretty pissed off at Buchholz for that inning. Not because I care about who wins this game but because I have nothing else to watch. Looks like it'll be a MLB 15 The Show night for me.

That's gotta feel good for Yankees fans though after an otherwise miserable first week.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>Padres take out the Giants to win the belt. Diamondbacks have apparently found Batista's old unlimited title matches cheat code as they are the #1 Contender once again.</font>

The dex fowler bomb was great to see. Haven't felt that excited for cubs baseball in 5 or 6 years. The great piece of hitting by Wellington Castillo before that is going to get lost in the shuffle.

Never understood why they felt such a pressing need to sign David Ross.

because Jon Lester.

Dumb move

Great win for the Yankees last night. Now if they can only hit like that every day.

Defense is still shoddy.

hate baseball

<font color=goldenrod>I love the deGrominator</font>

Yup....that's Chris Coghlan batting cleanup.

Did anyone catch the game on sports center? Of course not baseball isn't relevant lol

.....and that's Chris Coghlan going 3 for 3 with a home run so far.........I give up trying to figure out this game.

But it sure is neat

Joe Maddon knows all.

All I've been able to think all day is how excited I am Vito Cruz is finally going to get to see Matt Harvey pitch at Citi Field

Rod Allen isn't calling this game against Pittsburgh. Jack Morris, legend that he is at baseballing, is no Rod Allen. I don't even want to watch this.

Is Carter Capps' delivery illegal? What say yall? Doesn't Jordan Walden do something similar?

Looks like a good way to break your ankle. Seems illegal. The pitch doesn't start until he is off the mound.

I liked the Shane Greene trade when we made it, and even moreso now that he's pitched two gems. Great find for the Tigers.

<font color=goldenrod>One of the weirdest fucking games I've ever seen. Harvey pitching, multiple umpire reviews, a bogus catcher's interference call, several hit batters, benches warned, manager ejected. Cuddyer AND Wright both leaving via injury, leaving the Mets to finish and win the game with backup catcher Anthony Recker at third. Recker has never played a professional game at third base.

Anyway, a win's a win. Wright pulled hammy though. Dude has been locked in to start the year. Allmost certainly a DL stint, those injuries can linger. Time to see what the team is really made of when you go through a game like that.</font>

love baseball

hate Kevin Gregg

you love him and his adorable goggles.

<font color=goldenrod>Still baffled at that game. Only way it could have gotten weirder would have been if d'Arnaud got ejected for arguing catcher's interference. Then the infield shuffle at the end would have resulted in Jacob deGrom playing shortstop for the first time since college.</font>

Nobody likes Kevin Gregg.

Most hitters seem to.

Bud Norris is trying to win his first 5 starts vs the Yankees, only 2 other pitchers have won their first 5 starts vs the Yankees Since 1914

Sox take 2 out of 3 of the first three series. 6-3 with a half game lead over Tampa.

D-Backs call up Yasmani Tomas.

Get him in your fantasy rosters while you can.

<font color=goldenrod>Diamondbacks come up short again. Maybe they'll fall out of the title picture for a bit as the Padres move on to play the Cubs.</font>

I really like this idea and I hope you keep it updated all season. :)

Interesting replay call in the marlins/mets game just now. MLB replays way more unpredictable than NFL. Same logic to draw our own conclusions can't necessarily be used. Feel like an NFL ref would have just been like "fuck it, call stands"

<font color=goldenrod>I'm obviously biased given that it's the Mets but I just don't see how anything can be conclusive/irrefutable if it takes 5 minutes to reach a decision.

Replay official said they could determine Travis d'Arnaud didn't tag Ichiro. I can only assume Miami's TV had a better angle because SNY didn't have anything.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>Also the other thing - the replay clearly showed Ichiro didn't get the tag in until his second dive, which was after the ump already called out. d'Arnaud didn't try to dive after him because he saw the ump rule Ichiro out.

The new replay rules basically mean you need to ignore the ump and keep playing if there is any doubt in your mind about the call.</font>

Cubs promoting Kris Bryant to the main club due to Mike Olt getting injured recently. Cubs also managed to get past the deadline needed in order to get the extra year added before free agency.

Headed to Toronto tomorrow to watch the Jays play a three game series against the Braves.

Nice! I'm headed to a Tigers game on the 26th I believe, I'll be in Windsor that weekend
