Yes. The Reds pitching has been outstanding all day.Is this the Braves' first time with a man on third and less than two outs? Reds have had it often.
Was about to comment on the exact same thing. That's Georgia for you.I didn't see a single mask on the group outside the stadium.
Have the Jays worn those blue unis before? They're a very Rays-like shade, which is kinda confusing.Rays are jumping all over Ryu. 7-0 in 2nd after Renfroe grand slam.

Without their two best pitchers, they didn't stand much of a chance in a short series. I was on that bandwagon, my stop is coming up tomorrow and I'll get off there. I think I transfer to Tampa Bay I suppose.Paddack getting hammered in the first, 4-0 STL.
Marlins feel-good story potentially stopped if Marte's hand is broken.
Broken hand for MarteOooof, that's gotta hurt. Marte hit in the hand. Hopefully nothing fractured
I really like this idea. Just put a button in each dugout and if you think a call was obviously wrong you hit the button and then a light pops up on the field somewhere indicating whether the call was correct or wrong. No conference needed, no need to involve New York, no stoppage in play at all more than a few seconds.I think I'd be in favor of allowing two challenges to ball strike calls each game and simply using some agreed upon technology to call it. No video review. Just use the same technology ESPN or whatever uses and realize that while it might not be perfect it is there to backstop the game changing obviously wrong calls.
5 run lead though, I think you need to go with your main setup guy there first, or as you say, use someone else to start the 9th.I don't have a problem with Melvin deciding that sometimes a game needs closing against the best hitters in the 8th.
I think the goal was Hendriks for 6 outs. But the moment he hit 25 pitches to get out of the 8th, he should have had someone else warming regardless. Instead, he waited until Hendriks got over 40 pitches before he got Diekman up.I don't have a problem with Melvin deciding that sometimes a game needs closing against the best hitters in the 8th. But what was his thinking for bringing him in for the ninth?
If you decide to use your closer in the 8th doesn't that mean you are also deciding that you aren't using him in the 9th? He played it both ways. Unless maybe he thought that he'd thrown so many pitches in the 8th he was burned for tomorrow anyway and might as well?
It works great in Tennis and takes like 10 seconds. No reason not to.I think I'd be in favor of allowing two challenges to ball strike calls each game and simply using some agreed upon technology to call it. No video review. Just use the same technology ESPN or whatever uses and realize that while it might not be perfect it is there to backstop the game changing obviously wrong calls.
