[Roast]

yay for hits from sori

[haubrich91]

Soriano hitting opposite field is money.

[erik316wttn]

Nice that Soriano isn't an automatic out anymore.

[E.J.]

I love seeing Soriano going the other way.

[DiamondMind]

Did Sori just go oppo? Nice AB.

[erik316wttn]

Here's the 2nd out.

Well, he really didn't try to hard to get out of the way

No, he didn't, but they never call that. And the Reds announcers know it.

Why should he? The point is he didn't lean in.

That's dangerously close to the lineup we started the season with.

That's what I was thinking. We're a Soto away from having out actual team out there.

 

We could have Fox in there catching and the lineup would be much better. I know he's supposedly a terrible catcher, but I think his offense would make up for it. He would be up right now instead of Fontenot with two on and one out.

That's one of those rules that's never called, though. I think I can remember one time ever seeing an umpire not award a hitter first base for not getting out of the way.

[Roast]

FONTEYES!

[erik316wttn]

FONTYBOMB!!

[DiamondMind]

SNEAKY POWER

[haubrich91]

WOOOOOOOOOO SNEAKY POWER!!!!!!

[E.J.]

Did that really just happen?

[kujay]

LBR

[Derwood]

Sneaky Power!

[Flames24Rulz]

Whoa, Fontenot showing some power!

[BCVM22]

Sneaky power!

[laurens]

Here's the 2nd out.

 

orly?

I happily stand corrected.

Or Fontenot can do a Fox impression.
