POR will get a chance tonight to do what he's good at...hitting.

 

That is if he's still in the game when it's his turn to bat.

[TylerD]

We got this!

[fxkatt]

I assume this is a 6:40 start. A little peculiar.

[TylerD]

On the board!!

[S5Dewey]

I just turned on the game. Who are the two guys in the booth, and where's Dave O'B??

[TylerD]

Come on big dick

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Except for the K, everything else was hit on the screws. Baseball is not a fair game.

Todd Walker is one...not sure who the other guy is.

[TylerD]

Jbj! 2-0!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That blast by JBJ was estimated at 478 feet.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Juiced ball + high altitude = bombs away!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, JBJ's HR was the 7th longest in baseball this year. I'm getting the Rockies' feed and they're full of information.

[TylerD]

Porcello looks good.

Because of the Luck situation, many Colts' fans are asking for a refund on their season tickets. Good Luck with that.

Haha. Those Colts fans sure do have a sense of humor! Even thinking about asking for a refund is a stretch.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Blackmon may be the best un-talked about hitter in baseball.

Blackmon may be the best un-talked about hitter in baseball.

 

He's the best Coors field hitter of all time. His home splits this year are on-roids-Bonds-ian. His OPS doubles when he comes home

[S5Dewey]

What's a Tom Helmer, and what's he doing in a Red Sox booth?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Haha. Those Colts fans sure do have a sense of humor! Even thinking about asking for a refund is a stretch.

 

Every professional athlete has the right to retire whenever they want. The way Luck did it was very shoddy. He will be considered by many Colts' fans as a quitter and that label will override all the good things he did as a Colt.

[TylerD]

4-0 good guys!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

A VAZtly improved hitter.

[bosoxmal]

I think I would fine Purcello for not runnimg out the play to 1B/ Maybe $50 which would bring it to everu ome's attention!

 

 

I guess he made up for it with 1B cover. Now I think I'd pu;; him after 5.

Because most pitchers in both leagues rarely go past 5 innings, the NL really has no excuse now for not adopting the DH. Nobody, except his parents, wants to watch a pitcher bat.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Also, having a DH in the NL will help even out the disparity in ERA's between the two leagues. Edited August 28, 2019 by SPLENDIDSPLINTER

I wanted Porcillo to bat there. At least not bunt. Bunting is what pitchers do when they can't hit.

I agree with that.
