8/12/21 Going for a first-place tie with Rockycola game thread

Lead off double.

I know it is early but I was kinda wanting a bunt there just to push across a run early.

Fundamental baseball.

Executing.

SS does not know the meaning of that. U actually need a coach to do that.

My prediction that France would go on a HR tear was terrible.

Yeah, he puts up second baseman numbers

It's weird, because he can hit 425-plus bombs but he doesn't elevate often and he has zero opposite-filed power, probably because of his stance. Now, if he starts hitting over .300 which he probably can, much better.

Leadoff double, one of the worst starting pitchers in MLB, 2-3-4 hitters up, and JP doesn't even get to third. Lovely.

Wow, A's up 17-0 in the 9th against the Cleveland Baseball Team.

Good idea putting the best defense on the field even though that's where most of the hits off Marco go...

One down. If they score one more, we'll never catch them.

They are very disgruntled with the news they have to play for the Depends Guard mascot!

18 in 82 innings, that's...a lot. I suppose as long as they're bases-empty we've got a chance of catching up sometime in the next eight innings.

[DavidGee24]

Toro never hits that way and the LF is playing there? Bullshit. He wears it next time up.

[ddraig]

Making a nobody pitcher look like a Cy Young candidate. So what else is new?
