Guerrero Jr. is 4-4 with 3 HR and a double tonight

Mitch Garver, the next batter, then drove in a run. Really looking forward to Joe steadfastly refusing to admit this was a bad idea after the game.

In the 4th inning. LOL. I think we can officially say Maddon has lost his mind.

 

Seaver’s career OPS against righties is only 87 points higher than against lefties so it’s not even like he’s got some absurd platoon split where he just annihilates righties, not that having one would justify this.

[Jaxbro]

So Seager became the 3rd player since the 1950’s to be IBB with the bases loaded. Bonds and Josh Hamelton the others. Best part, one manager is now responsible for making that decision to two of the three not named Bonds. Good ol Joe

Nestor Cortes struck out 12 Orioles in 5 innings. Right around 80 pitches so he's probably done, but he absolutely mowed those guys down.

My friend was supposed to be at that game, he was flying in for work, they moved up the game time 3 hours and didn't notify anyone, so he showed up to park and (along with several other cars) got told it was the 8th inning.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

They charged me like $20 online for parking when I went there a couple years ago. I showed up with my pass and the security guy laughed and told me Tuesdays were free parking. He felt bad I got swindled so I got to park right up next to the stadium.

The Guardians had only 9100 in paid attendance at a double header yesterday. Two games for the price of one and they couldn't get 10k into the stadium

I don't really want to sit out in 43-degree temps for 6 hours either.

Good on the Yankee players for stopping it

Eloy Jiminez carted off the field after awkwardly running through first base

[PackLandVA]

Looks like he probably tore his right hammy.

Quintana is gonna be worth more WAR in his time with the Cubs than Eloy will in his entire career.

Rendon beats Javy

[PackLandVA]

118 pitches for Greene, but he's just given up btb walks in the 8th. Gets yanked with no hits allowed after 7 1/3.

[sweetpeteman]

LOLReds.

[PackLandVA]

LOLReds.

 

Bases loaded, one out in the bottom of the 8th, and the Reds' pitcher induces a GB to the second baseman. Easy double play to get out of the inning, right?

 

Nope.

 

Second baseman has trouble getting ball out of his glove, gets guy at 2nd, but Hayes beats throw to 1st. Run scores.

 

Reds get the no-hitter but lose.

Correction: doesn't count as a no hitter

Albert Pujols is out there slinging 50 mph curveballs in a blowout win. Almost got a GDP and then served up a 3 run bomb and a solo back to back.

 

Cardinals absolutely murdered Rodon tonight.

 

Oh and btw Pujols has a 135 wRC+ right now because of course he does.

Who could've predicted that besides literally anyone
