    It was a hit and run, the batter didn't swing, can't blame him for that ****.

    It was actually beautiful.

    The troll come from behind wins are by far the most aggravating and satisfying 3 hour experience you can have.

    Well it was a joke on my part since I didn’t see why the run down occurred but yea these are a **** show. The fans bailing out with 6 to 9 outs left are hilarious. If you temper expectations it can be tolerated.

    I'm rooting for JV to win Comeback Player of the Year, and the Cy Young. And to get to 300 career wins. At least he isn't charged with the L. I guess this evens out the Washington game, where he powered through 5 innings and lots of traffic, and the Arlington game where Kyle Tucker's pinch hit heroics bailed him after he went 7 and was done. Hoping for something like 21-6 (his 2019 record) this year.

    The game was postponed, but we can root for Nestor Cortes to give up 6 ER in 3 IP, in a game where the Angels squeak by 14-13 in 12 innings - where both teams' bullpens get tired. All while they both escape injury free, because injuries always suck no matter what uniform, and it's better for the game that everyone is healthy.

    From a strictly baseball perspective, we want them healthy because we do poorly against new pitchers they would call up if they have to replace anyone.

    I'll venture a guess... because he's hit a lot of doubles compared to the rest of the league?
