Has Cruz batted third previously this season?

The whole league?

I assuming they went to some hunting supplier or lowest bidder for the camo pattern, as that does not look like any US military camouflage pattern with which I am familiar.

started the year that way.

Seems to be working....

I’m concerned that this isn’t a slow start for Soto but something more telling. I really believe he is pressing and the specter of FA is weighing on him.

DPMOmaha · « **Reply #10:** May 20, 2022, 09:50:00 PM »

He struggled last year to start, too. Almost rode the 2nd half into an MVP season. Not worried about him.

Game?

welch · « **Reply #12:** May 20, 2022, 09:56:37 PM »

That sad face: the Fedde we know as soon as something goes wrong.

Dave in Fairfax · « **Reply #13:** May 20, 2022, 10:00:28 PM »

This game went south fast.

Slateman · « **Reply #14:** May 20, 2022, 10:06:11 PM »

How in the hell do you send him there? Thomas slips coming into third.

Dave in Fairfax · « **Reply #15:** May 20, 2022, 10:07:38 PM »

Why no replays?

Without looking up his stats I believe he was batting around .275 until the halfway point the drain is 25% over

How convenient. NFL or any other sport would never play a game w/o functioning replay, would they?

CowherPower · « **Reply #20:** May 20, 2022, 10:15:21 PM »

Why didn't they challenge that play at the plate? I understand if catcher interference isn't reviewable, but the replay from the 3rd base dugout angle makes it look like the catcher missed the tag entirely. What do you have to lose?

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #21:** May 20, 2022, 10:16:44 PM »

Triple play!

Apparently the replay system isn’t available tonight. What BS.
