Toronto announcers keep teasing some other Cal Poly grad much more famous than KC. Who is it?

Their broadcast is where I found that Correia factoid, but I knew the famous one already.

Casey Fien? Well, it's probably Ozzie Smith. Or Weird Al Yankovic.

And he's a fun guy...like Escobar. Did you see him ribbing Morales for not scoring on his single?

 

Good addition.

 

I have to wonder, with all the discussion lately about unwritten rules, just how much of this kind of joshing (and gesturing especially) is tolerated by the other team before it gets construed as taunting or making light of them, resulting in perceived honor being at stake?

Good question, but it was pretty apparent they were teasing each other

You just can't coach the kind of speed Morales showed legging out that grounder to Reyes.

 

I credit Molitor anyway...

 

Morales=singles hitter...sweet!

Don't look now, but Arcia has a walk 3 games in a row. That's a good sign.

 

Great catch. Considering his previous boycott, it's maybe more than just a good sign...

This odd, odd game continues. Gritty at bat by Santana though...he's a very pleasant surprise.

 

I totally agree- he put his bat on some tough pitches to stay alive, then beat out a nubber. Really nice job.

Maybe he only hits a double if he hits it over the fence and has to stop at second because he is tired.

Right...Happ actually was starting to look kinda good out there the last three batters. Tough luck tonight for him.

25 years ago, I spent a ton of time with this game on my Sega Genisis in my parents basement

 

And with your 65th birthday coming up, we're proud of your two-plus decades of accomplishment.

It looks like Happ has enough stuff to challenge hitters like he did with Zuke and Esco. It has to drive a team crazy to see a guy continue to nibble until his back against the wall.

Keeps taking off and putting on the glove?

 

He kept looking into the catcher, then stepping off the rubber and starting over.
