Sounds like it's pretty much confirmed this is Francona's last season managing.
Incredible career and a clear advantage over almost every other manager. HOFer for sure. By all accounts an Incredible human being as well.
The game will miss him.
Nice win. Felt like the kind of game they've let slip away too many times this season. But not tonight.
First time all season they've gotten to 7 games over .500. Good time for it.
He's a below average hitter without a position who was due arbitration.
He settled for a minor league deal with a camp invite from the Twins last winter. He wasn't in demand.
And for the record, he's almost exactly at his career norms this year.
I don't know. Neither do you. The umpire who saw it live said no. And MLB umps are really, really good.
Replay umps, with the best technology available to man, didn't overturn it.
I WILL say in 2023 we should have seen a better angle.
