Phew!

 

I thought you were taking the over there, for a moment....

He really produced during the off season?

 

Winter ball! That's right.

 

(except it is Summer in the southern hemisphere...)

Little known fact: they run the bases the opposite way in the southern hemisphere.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Apparently they're using a semi automatic. 

[ashbury]

If Simmons would take more swings like that one, I might say fewer unkind things about his 2021.

Nice outing from Berrios, we really needed a guy to go 7+. Now, can the pen hold this lead?

Colome's fresh.

[USAFChief]

Wow, a two strike sac bunt. You don't get more old school than that. 

[USAFChief]

Lol, the ball boy down the left field line wanted no part of that Polanco foul ball.

Great day from Polanco at the plate. I'm interested to see if he'll continue this hot streak up and get his numbers back to where they are normally.

Kirk is not in the same place in the second frame...

 

I am confused.

He's been quietly good for a while now. .838 OPS for the month of May, over .900 for June.

And lefties are called ‘northpaws’...and their fastballs can reach 160.

[Halsey Hall]

We need a pen tonight.

Well, he made solid contact, which is an improvement for him. Still, he's 1 for 10 in bases loaded situations with a measly 4 RBIs.

Concur.

Accessibilty is important.
