Josh with the leather!
And I am guessing he gets a bit more rope as well due to his contributions the last two seasons....but his bat looks really slow this year and he only hit .205 in the spring as well (9-44) so who knows?mathguy86 said:
Pretty sure White is out of options. If so, you can't send him down without exposing him. And I can't see them doing that.

Got a nice chuckle from my section tonight when White first came up and it flashed his weight at 225....and I yelled "225...yeah, in his bra."

How does the ball bounce off padding like that, it doesn't, it disappears, hot something and bounced back
I'm almost certain the ball hit the padding, hit that red thing and came back into play.
And that would be a ground rule double right?
Not sure if its considered in play or not. I was thinking it wasn't.
I don't know the wall contact rules in Arlington.

The hook em horns is a nice touch.

Too small of sample size, but it does not inspire confidence when he shows up for the most important baseball season of his life looking like a well-fed manatee.
Then again, no one complained that Tony Gwynn and Kirby Puckett were fat, because they Raked

Yall should go check the Daddario thread on the Entertainment board fast
The ball clearly hit the padding (you can see the padding change shape) and came back into the field of play on the replay which is a ball in play. I suspect the ricochet was due to whatever is immediately backing the padding. The padding that is raised in front of the kid in the photo is not just flopping in the breeze.astros4545 said:. . . said:
I'd live to hear the logic from anyone who believes that wasn't a homerun
not sure you can say clearly, as both broadcasts thought it was a home run. My guess is it was a "call stands" where they couldn't overturn it but they couldn't prove it went over the wall.dlance said:The ball clearly hit the padding (you can see the padding change shape) and came back into the field of play on the replay which is a ball in play.

Basically it was an inch short of being a homer.

I'm like 98% sure it was a home run
