August 22, 20241 yr Judge is going bananas. 3 homers in like his last 5 at bats. He has 34 games left to hit 12 homers and become the 3rd player ever with multiple 60 homer seasons. The other 2 being McGwire & Sosa. Edited August 22, 20241 yr by Helobious

August 22, 20241 yr Damn. kwan singled on the 2nd pitch of the game. Cleveland’s only hit of the game
August 22, 20241 yr Well, next year Dan Wilson will have that experience as a manager to get the Washington Huskies head coaching job... 🙄 Edited August 22, 20241 yr by petscii

He's a much more versatile defender than Heyward, but a worse bat. Heyward is a great locker room guy by all accounts too. I would have preferred Heyward over Taylor by a mile. At least we're at a point that we are getting all of our players back healthy, creating this logjam.
August 23, 20241 yr They could have kept Taylor 'injured' for 9 more days, then he could have been the 14th position player.

August 23, 20241 yr The best part is that he will be catching for an AB that he started as the batter.

Only thing better would be if he had an 0-2 count and the pinch hitter completes the strikeout. If that had happened he would have gotten the K for the at-bat and the putout as the catcher. He would have technically put himself out.

August 24, 20241 yr Nothing like an inside the parker that ends with a play at the plate. He was flying.
August 24, 20241 yr Shohei up, tied, loaded, 2 outs in bot 9. Fucking salami, damn. Edited August 24, 20241 yr by shadow_operative2.0
August 24, 20241 yr Holy shit Shohei!!!! I know you gotta come at him but that for your first pitch?!
August 24, 20241 yr the hr hit a fan right in his glove and he blew it. guy should never go to another game the rest of his life.
August 24, 20241 yr Seattle 6 straight singles to start the bottom of the 8th leads to 4 runs and tie game vs SF

August 24, 20241 yr Wilson probably should have used Moore to hit for Rojas there instead of running for Turner. Ha, then he steals right after.
August 24, 20241 yr dave roberts gets shit on a lot, and usually deservedly so, but i doubt very many other managers would have let shohei run like this. in fact i’d guess that almost none of them would. in fact major managers already don’t have their teams running enough to begin with. add to that how big of a factor that fear is when dealing with star players like shohei, and you’ve got to top your cap for roberts on this one.

But it’s win it all or he’s done I think. This team is set up for a title run. We just need our arms to be healthy. Man if only we had his arm as well.
