I thought it was a smokestack?

For the most part, those babies are gone.

That pyramid shaped building in dahntahn was the tallest building in the city when I was a kid.

Players hit off a tee all the time. You know to better than to
believe the media.

I’m all over that fake news thing but Rizzo might want to get a couple more for Murphy and Wieters.

Baseball fights are great. Like ritual combat in a Hindu temple, big feathers and lots of noise

Does anyone else find FP's insistence on talking about "getting the score within slam range" ridiculously stupid or is it just me?

It's just one of many methods F.P. uses to say, "Don't switch the channel!"

ESPN is spending lots of time not showing the game. They shamelessly interviewed Scherzer for about 15 minutes, and later spend 3-4 minutes praising Juan Soto. They spent 5 minutes talking about their 63-year-old broadcaster (who claimed he needs hip surgery) playing in the Celebrity Softball Game (showing clips and taking tips) before the All Star Game.

I haven't watched MASN at all this game. Just switch to ESPN. They're rooting for a brawl on the field. They showed the bullpens casually jogging onto the field to watch any fight.

You guys think we’ll ever see a Soto, Robles, Harper outfield? Maybe in September?

And don’t forget the singing and dancing.

I like the Buddhist version where the robes have names on the back. Plus, I'm just wild about saffron.

Eaton sez, "I gotta bat. Whacha wanna do?"

Sad times when you’re excited about Wieters return. Trade for Ramos
