  1. Yep. They just hit another one. Unreal.
  2. 4-3 now. Santana has gotten nobody out.
  3. So what differentiates it be called or suspended? I never get the rule. Went and looked it up. Man, this Santana guy came in and throwing garbage. Infielder in right field made a pretty bad play too.

  5. They were two out away from it being an official game and now it’s in a rain delay. Supposed to thunderstorm for several hours. The delay call was very preemptive. It didn’t look like it was raining much there. This lead may get washed away. Figures. Does it ever not rain in Pittsburgh. Make em wait it out like we had to in Washington.
  6. Need a good Jon tomorrow. This Lopez kid has been nails lately and showed it today. Rodon vs Kyle will be a good matchup.
  7. Because this type of abuse by men is ingrained deep, deep, deep down in...well, everything. It's like racism in that it's just such an inherent part of the power dynamics of our relationships that it leads to wondering things like this. Add in the factors of the abuser being someone famous and rich? Woof. The amount of fear and self-loathing and trauma that comes with abuse (and in the response to it being exposed/reported) is why sexual assault and spousal abuse are so dramatically under-reported. It takes a LOT to finally find what it takes to speak out against someone who has dominated them via fear and violence (and, again, the likely scorn, insults, anger and humiliation that comes along with being the person to speak out), so, yeah...it's really never a surprise when a guy doesn't get why a woman wouldn't go right to the police. The police and legal system have largely just tolerated, ignored or even fostered this power imbalance basically forever. Couple it with the abuser being a famous person that scores of people want to love and be a fan of? Forget about it. I agree with everything you are saying. Now that she has gotten to the point of telling her story, I hope she hangs the horsefeathers. I think having the MLB process here actually is a good thing for her. The Instagram approach I think is going to expose her to more nonsense and ridicule that isn’t fair.
  8. Maybe we shouldn’t have given up in the 6th
  9. I guess Joe didn’t want to win this game either.
  10. While I am pretty certain that Russell is a garbage guy, I just don’t get why people don’t use legal channels for this and feel social media is the place to deliver this message. Press charges against the horsefeathers or bury him with MLB. Wouldn’t this stuff have come up when they went through divorce proceedings? Not delegitimizing what she went through, I just don’t get the approach.
  11. https://twitter.com/kellyawallace/status/1042999700633210883?s=21
  12. Affleck, Damon and Wahlberg are probably fighting over the rights to this story to make it in to a movie as we speak I was wondering which one was good at math
  13. I just can’t figure out why Zobrist isn’t leading off
  14. Welp. At least the Strop news was promising today.
  15. We still have a chance in this one. Ray is done.
  16. Not sure if any pitch thrown to him tonight was a strike.
  17. Alas, Almora is leading off, so it doesn't matter.
  18. Well I hope he brings in the B team relievers too.
  19. The consistent Cubs offense is so fun.
