Gasp! (er) Duran just homered!!!

His 19th, so it's far from his first rodeo.

Speaking of homers, who was the oldest player in MLB to hit his first home run?

Correct. You have won a Captain Midnight decoder ring. Keep checking your mail box.

I found that information in my prodigious fund of knowledge, also known as google 

[FredLynn]

Nice to see Story still stinks 

[vegasbob]

Tolle not able to control the 5th

[FredLynn]

This game is almost over

 

[iortiz]

This is what happens when you start walking ppl for no reason. 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That could have been game over. Nice buckling down by Tolle.

[vegasbob]

Tolle woke up and did shut it down at 1 run but with the expense of pitch count.  

Hitters need to wake up now

Tolle does show some grit and talent that a few of his peers lack

Swinging bunts are difficult to practice at

Almost as difficult as practicing catching foul tips.

If Anthony stays healthy during his tenure in Boston he’s going to be a super star. That’s a big IF though.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Raffy with a very timely hit.

[FredLynn]

Looked like they were pitching around Gaspar. I don’t blame them 

[iortiz]

Big hit by Rafael. I had been missing those in clutch moments by Rafa.

He does have excellent plate discipline.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Just give Rafaela the GG now.

[FredLynn]

Rafaela makes the extraordinary routine in CF

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Good job by Tolle with some big help from Raf and Duran in the OF.

[FredLynn]

Should have left Tolle in for Crawford 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Always great walking the #9 batter.

[FredLynn]

Flops gag it up

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If you stand on your head, Seattle has the best offense in baseball. 

[FredLynn]

Game over

This team just isn’t very good 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Guerrero brought the gas can to the mound. 

[FredLynn]

The Guardians will be four games behind after this loss
