Byron's nickname should be "Sonic the Center Fielder"

[DrJubal]

I fear our DH was just injured on a head-first slide into first base.  Nicky Punto - anyone?

[Aggies7]

Lol everyone was worried about him getting hurt as soon as the first baseman fielded the ball

Front yard.

[RickOShea]

Buxton face plants out a single.

[Aggies7]

This catcher has the yips

[RickOShea]

This dodger catcher just played himself out of this year's all-star game.

[Aggies7]

Someone get this guy to memorize playboy centerfold interviews!

[stringer bell]

Now a wild pitch for a "hitless wonders" run.

Kershaw doesn't throw wild pitches.

Okay, Rube.

[RickOShea]

Kershaw  now has 2813 career strikeouts.  Buxton has 2810.

[Aggies7]

we’ve left a small village on the paths tonight 

[PDX Twin]

64 pitches through 3 innings. We'll get to see what's left in their bullpen soon.

(Of course, they are saying the same thing.)

[cHawk]

Even when he can't hit the ball, he makes plays like that one right there.

[stringer bell]

Correa made the perfect throw. His D has been All-Star worthy.

[RickOShea]

Just when you think correa can't screw up things anymore than he does, he does something like that and totally redeems himself (sic).

We haven't had a SS who makes that play for a long time prior to Correa. 

[stringer bell]

I think #5 of the Dodgers will be the only guy who can challenge Arraez for the NL batting championship.

We thought we had one in Simmons not too long ago, but that...well...you know...

Speaking of Arraez, walkoff single tonight. 

[PDX Twin]

Ober is 1/3 of the way through a 168-pitch shutout!

Did Nolan Ryan throw 235 pitches in one game?

 

 

 

 

Pitching 13 innings against the Boston Red Sox on June 14, 1974, Ryan threw 235 pitches, striking out 19, walking 10 and getting a no-decision. During a September 7, 1974 game against the Chicago White Sox at Anaheim Stadium, Ryan became the first Major League pitcher to have his pitch speed measured during a game.

[RickOShea]

I think gagne was the best fielding shortstop for the Twins on artificial turf, while Leo Cardenas could pick it on grass at the Met.

Is this satire? Buxton only has about 2100 career AB's

Gagne was really really good.

[cHawk]

Kershaw really thought he could get away with that.
