    Root really is stingy with the pitch tracker.

    That was pretty ugly all the way around.

    They want MDA to pay more money...but unfortunately, more people would have to get cancer.

    Thus, rooting for more pitch tracker = rooting for cancer.

    I'm all for an organization that doesn't take in millions of dollars worth of donations every year paying for a pitch tracker. I don't like the idea from either end.

    No way he could have expected it.

    That Neshel change/eephus looks like a very tough pitch to hit.

    Fun game.... But man this is probably the hottest (temperature) game I've been to at MMP...might as well have the roof open.

    It might just be the Crawford boxes that are so hot.

    Boston should have saved some of those runs to spread out. Good news is either losing is good for us.

    this is why you don't throw closers in non-save situations. rangers are gonna get an unfortunate win, kimbrel just gave up a walk, single, single, and homer in his first 4 batters. red sox hitting with RISP was also pathetic today.

    i still think we can catch the rangers for 1st if they don't add another arm.

    His three weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the breaking ball.

    A/C is out. I've been there once when that happened, it was not pleasant after a while.

    They really should/could get back to opening it up after the sun goes down... It's actually quite pleasant outside.

    But it could be a manager/team decision... I'm sure the pitchers never appreciated elements of the game changing mid-game.

    Had this stat come across on my fantasy feed. Surprising.

    Houston has the worst average in the American League against lefties (.228/.321/.393)
