    I'd never heard the "thumbnail can catch the back of the hand on the follow through of a curveball" that Sparks relayed via Blum. That's some serious digital flexibility, no wonder Kate's always smiling.

    Angel Hernandez's incompetence might've helped JV out there. Was that a swing?

    The most impressive thing about Verlander is his ability to get out of jams

    See all that blood on his hand at the end of the inning? Looks like it’s bothering him.
