I love seeing Rainey keeping it together there.   

Our young guys are all developing well these days vs past years.

Rainey's looking like a lottery ticket come up winner.  That trade seemed like a salary dump at the time.   Ironic, too, because Roark was himself a lottery ticket acquired in a salary dump (for Guzman).

He stole second again, for all intents and purposes.

Turned on the Braves broadcast. Chip sounded like he was going to cry on that last out.

He's been awful all around for both teams.   Seems like most umps we've seen this year are around 95+% if the box is accurate.  He's around 80% at best.

This feels so much like a DH game. Long, pitchers getting the chance to wiggleoff the hook, Soto homering

I think the Magic Juan gets most of his power from his lower half.
