  1. That was funny. So I got Andres in fantasy. So I got a notification that he homers. So I like really watch the screen. Apparently it was a pitch behind cuz I was I seen Andres showing bunt and thought he was recreating that video of Roberto bunting a homer

  2. I wonder if Gimenez has the best RBI/HR ratio of the league. Can anyone find that out or point me in a direction to find that?

  3. The game is great and all, but we’re all looking at the lady right behind first plate who is just talking non stop. 

  4. fuckouttahere.org

    Edit: oops, I didn’t see the Folds of Honor on the other side of the backstop, I promise I do not hate our fallen troops

  5. Is this just a rest thing for Lively? I know he’d be facing the lineup for the 3rd but he was cursing

  6. I can’t help
    But feel bad when we get a double play because I know how much it stinks to see our team hit into a double play

  7. Seeing our boys do their job just as well slightly hungover makes me identify with them even more.  

  8. Gotta say once thing I disagree with Vogt on is the early pinch hitters in a situation that doesn’t warrant it. Why pinch hit Manzardo in the 7th when it’s likely Fry is gonna have a similar same-handed matchup later?

  9. huh I was today years old when I learned that if there’s a double steal and the lead runner gets thrown out, the trailing runner doesn’t get a SB
