Nice job, Royce.

 

I had hoped to catch your first last night.

 

Oh well.

Is it me, or has Cleveland had someone named "Shaw" in the pen for 49 straight years?

At this rate, he might be the last Shaw for Cleveland.

[MadHits]

Aww the Royce n Byron hug in the dugout, so wholesome ?

[AceWrigley]

Carlos Correa who?

[Steve71]

This young man looks completely comfortable facing MLB pitching.  So impressive.

Play Lewis at 3B when Correa comes back?  How can you send him back down?

[David HK]

Wow.

I've gotten a Derek Jeter vibe ever since I first saw this kid.  And he's wearing Sandberg's number besides.  Double vibe of two all-time greats.  I wonder if Correa is thinking about that option... ?

Fun fact: prior to joining Cleveland's ball team, Shaw had a distinguished acting career.

[wsnydes]

Well, what a way to get your first MLB HR...

Royce!!

His numbers aren't great so far, but he should not be hitting 9th.

I would like to bump this important piece of insight.

But if he wasn't hitting 9th he wouldn't have the grand slam...

Makes me wonder what we could get for Correa in a trade. (Only partly joking.)

Lewis has said many times that Jeter was one of his favorite players

[Nine of twelve]

And by the way, the jerseys are backwards tonight. Should be Twins blue, In..., er, Guardians red.

[AceWrigley]

Hi, my name is Bryan Shaw and I . . .

Short Stop needs a glove more than a bat.
