    So you're saying he's *not* sticking to the wall?

    18 straight games without a day off.

    Yeah we could definitely use a CG from Framber. Worse case, get Hader in there in the 9th so he doesn't have too many days off. Although I would opt not to use him.

    Better than Robel Garcia or Nico Goodrum at leadoff with a healthy roster.

    It took a while, but Pena finally accepted the walk the pitcher was trying to give him

    Let's go Diaz

    So if the fan interferes with the ball and it's gone past the edge of the wall (out of the field of play) that's considered legal?

    He would have been out by 20 feet

    Ball was smoked, got to RF in a hurry, RF had it lined up for the catch/throw, and he threw a dart to home plate.

    So this RF just cost Diaz yet another RBI?

    You got Leon stealing a base but can't score on the single.

    Must be some kind of special defender.
