Major League Baseball (Part 1)

Please hurry with the RoboUmp. It’s so hard to watch balls/strikes knowing the technology exists to get it right.

Definitely no HRs for Vlad tonight with that called strike 3

Selig claimed ignorance of PEDs when they were trotting out guys “arbitrarily” in front of the Senate.

Very hard to give MLB the benefit of the doubt.

should have tagged his ass out rolling on the ground

He called for time right before he fell.

One time someone described Edgar Martinez as running like he hates the ground and I still laugh about it.

WTF at this decision. Even if this were peak Barry Bonds it would be bad, but Corey Seager??

Denny Matthews was marveling at his homer from yesterday during today’s broadcast lol

Firstly the swing, then the sound, then that it was into a decent wind.

From Posnanski:

Here’s something funny about managing a baseball game: You could do the absolute right thing from a percentage and logic standpoint and have it blow up in your face. And you could do the dumbest thing imaginable for the dumbest reason imaginable and have it work out perfectly.

What would be the “dumbest reason imaginable?”

Well, it just so happens we have Angels manager Joe Maddon right here to explain.

“I thought by going up there and doing something like that, the team might respond to something like that,” Maddon said.

There you go. He thought by doing something like that the team might respond to something like that. Simple.

“Something like that,” in this case involved intentionally walking Corey Seager with the bases loaded on Friday.

I’m at a Rockies game. I swear the dude who got beat up in Suns in 4! is sitting in the row in front of me. Same haircut, and he’s got two ridiculous square diamonds in each ear.

Either that or there are a lot of those dudes running around Denver. The guy who went viral was wearing a Nuggets jersey.

He’s with a girl and two other couples and nobody is speaking to each other at all, just glowering and watching the game.
