After watching Judge tie it up off of Bautista the other night, and then have the Yanks walk it off, I wasn't in the mood to watch last night after the O's went down 6-1. Woke up to a nice surprise this morning!

Just ducking in to note that the A's are 10-41 entering play tonight.

Legitimate shot at worse than the 1962 Mets underway.

And, they’ve already got a -183 run differential (giving up an average of over 7 runs a game!) So, they are really earning that record.

Royals have sent down the first 21 Cardinals so far today.

Never mind. Arenado single in the bottom of the 8th. Fuck the Rockies by the way.

The NV legislature only meets for four months every two years and they adjourned the session without approving the financing for the As stadium.

HOWEVA: They also didn’t complete bills to fund any ongoing infrastructure so there will certainly be a “special session”, which can only be called by the governor. At which point it could be taken up again.

This concludes your Nevada government lesson for the day.

Great article. The A’s owners have deliberately fucked over the fans of Oakland by letting the stadium go to hell, not investing in the team, and then jacking up the ticket prices - so they can point to deteriorating attendance to support their argument for leaving town.

Now if they'd only broadcast in the non-native language of the fanbase they'd be touching Expos' level of fuckery.

Where did it hit? Did it hit the ad sign / scoreboard, or was it initially landing where the fans were seated in the top row? Wasn't really clear. Either way, that was freakin crushed.

literally the last row of stands in RF. clear that and he is into the Ohio River with it. Only two balls have ever gone there I believe.

One thing baseball has over every other sport is that feeling of limitless potential when a young guy is working his way through the minors and then gets promoted. That’s always a great feeling, especially when he hits the ground kicking ass.

I am flashing on Griffey Jr.'s arrival at this point.

Here is a wide angle of him going home to third on the triple - just...look at him run

Very similar. Except...EDLC is a switch-hitter and pretty equally proficient from both sides of the plate. Oneil Cruz at this point in his career still really struggles with lefties.

EDLC went from +1500 to +330 to win NLROY in 2 games. May have been just one. My buddy got that bet either yesterday or before his first game. I went to hop in on +1500 this morning (my guy doesn't leave season bets up while games are being played) and he's at +330 this morning.

Finding it off seeing a Red wearing 44. I am sure others have worn it since ED, but Davis was a staple of my youth. And I haven't watch many Reds highlights or games since then either.
