Why would there be congratulations for this? This is a terrible thing, not a happy occasion.

Javier Baez was pulled from the game on Thursday night when this base running blunder caused the Tigers to run into a double play.
Manager A.J. Hinch called him into the tunnel and Baez did not return to the game.

Poor guy, he was really winning over the pitching staff

Roberto Perez had season-ending shoulder surgery yesterday, per Giants. It’ll be Joey Bart and Blake Sabol for now. Gary Sanchez is at Triple-A but needs to knock some rust off.
He’s right

SN NOW isn’t working for me. The game’s blocked on MLB TV. Guess I’ll listen to radio.
Bunch of Jays fans have never seen Belt play in SF before

Shaking my head at the brutal things in my mentions about Brandon Belt. Hope you all never have a bad week at work. #Bluejays
林家正 (Lyle Lin) has signed a minor league deal with the Toronto Blue Jays.
The 25-year-old Taiwanese catcher left the Diamondback system 2 weeks ago. #MLBTW

If this was 2006, Bryce Johnson would be the everyday leadoff CF for the SF Giants
If only the team could score a run, he’d be a cy young candidate the way he’s pitching

Anthony Desclafani with another excellent outing. Whenever he’s healthy, he’s really solid
Just make the scorebug a Budweiser logo for a second or something instead

That “home runs are for buds” ad read has to go, it’s absurdly intrusive to the moment

“Those days of not swinging at 3-0 are over, and they should be! It’s a great pitch to hit” - Mike Krukow, an actual old-school pitcher

When it doesn’t even occur to old school guys like Kruk and Kuip that this could be a reason to get mad there, you KNOW it’s a bad reason to get mad twitter.com/mike_petriello

This scorebug is a pretty big downgrade for the Guardians, but it’s still better than the ElevenSportsTW and CTBC Brothers ones in my opinion

And yet, we’re seeing pitching performances altered because the artificial rhythm of the game doesn’t let them warm up or prep their arm between pitches properly

Replying to @VagabondPNW and @PatrickMSports
3 hours of faster baseball would be awesome. All I wanted was less dicking around between pitches.
Also, yes, I do go to bed at 10 because my workday starts at 7:30.

Was three hours really a big deal though
Like, I get disliking the five hour games. But this isn’t the league that was consistently having the five hour games

A REALLY FUN THING WITH TRAYCE THOMPSON'S 3 HR GAME
which means nothing, but is FUN, and we love fun:
all 3 had the SAME EXIT VELOCITY
107.5 mph
he's the 1st player with 3 HR at the exact same EV in a game tracked by Statcast (2015)
h/t the wizard

He would’ve been replaced in the third inning by a AAA starter who was expected to give up fewer than five runs in three innings

Edwin Jackson would never ever ever be allowed to pitch this no-hitter today

Still confused why pitchers in the modern era are just okay with leaving in the middle of what could be their best career experience in a no-hitter

Jays were so uninspiring today that I flipped to the Dodgers game and literally forgot the Jays game didn’t end an hour ago

It’s definitely notable that baseball is missing those finesse starting pitchers and a couple knuckleballers right now. Nothing wrong with big velo guys, but having a variety of styles is good for the game.

Started watching baseball a little more.. pitching is gone, now throwers are taking over.. sad to see.. these hitters are to good. 102 looks cool to the fans. But 102 down the middle looks even better to these hitters

Entirely predictable that this guy simply wants to watch less baseball
