    I like how Verlander's answer to not getting a proper called strikeout on a great curve was to throw 97 mph up and in. Maybe somebody told him about his hero's bowtie talk during the previous inning.

    At that point, I think the hitters were trying to not make Verlander sit for another 30 minutes. :)

    JV gets to finish this.

    ETA: Or not...Probably the smart thing to go sit down.

    I still hate it. Hate. Hate.

    Incredible. Satchel Paige started playing in the Negro Leagues in 1926. Nolan Ryan just bridged 93 years of baseball with an offhand comment.

    Nope. I have to think that he was asked by Hinch, and he professionally deferred. I can't imagine Hinch pulling JV without his consent at only 100 pitches and an inning to go.

    Why can't Rondon start his slider up and then bury it down, instead of just burying it down? He's got the FB to work with.

    Nah, i didn't. I figure I'll do some more research on it. I was able to get the link to work on reddit finally but i really do like the at bat app. It's great and i use it all time.
