Hernandez is a guy that likes to pound the bottom of the zone with sinkers. I think Javy has a good game today.

Apparently the fox station here is going to show the tigers/royals game. Will the mlbtv app block me from watching the game today? Ugg I forgot how much I hated fox Saturdays.

No, Fox blackouts are a thing of the past.

Been a while since I tried watching a Fox game on a Saturday during the day so I wasn't sure.

Thanks for the heads up.

So mlb.tv is blacking out the game for me b/c it says I should be getting it on Fox. But Fox is giving me Tigers-Royals. So basically I'm fucked both ways. WHITE PEOPLE PROBLEMS!!!!!!

 

Edit: Now getting the Cubs game on mlb.tv, so I guess I won't be burning any buildings down after all.

[George Hayduke]

So on mlb.tv I'm watching the LAD video feed but listening to Pat and Ron. When the Dodgers' video feed shows player stats (BA, RBI, HR, etc), they include OPS. That just seems really progressive to me.

 

ETA: I should say, it's the Fox video feed.

[George Hayduke]

Cubbies working Hernandez really well so far.

Javy Kaez, amirite?

[Clem Fandango]

Javy Kaez, amirite?

 

To his credit, it was an 8 pitch AB (I think)

Yeah, among Javy K's, that was nowhere near the worst. I know that might be faint praise, but still...

Is Dee Gordon running the bases with a toothpick in his mouth??

He is. That's kind of badass, if not really stupid.

[Vinestal]

He was very out, they got the call wrong.

[George Hayduke]

He was very out, they got the call wrong.

I thought he pulled the glove off before he had that "off the bag" moment.

[George Hayduke]

Well [expletive].

Looked to me he had the glove on him the whole time. Doesn't make much difference we are gonna lose this one in similar fashion to yesterday's game. Dubront sucks.

[coldsteel]

surely e. jackson is available to pitch relief today

I thought the tag is what knocked the foot off the bag.

I thought it was just his momentum from the slide. Meh, w/e doesn't look like it'll matter much

[Vinestal]

That ball was crushed by Soler had double written all over it, just not our day. Soler out of the game now to, assume just being cautious with hike due to the weather.

Alcantara!!!!!!

[Gilby]

That's Alcantara's 20th homer this season between AAA and the majors. I wonder how many he'll hit when he gets older. He looks so small.
