The only first baseman in the history of the game to go 30/30? Is that right? And most of his career in the dome no less.

Scary thing is, Yordan has yet to really connect on a HR


Huh?

I think he just means Yordan is capable of 500+ ft HRs.

Here's the call from the Angels announcers:


Few more feet and that thing lands on I-5. Another 50 feet beyond that and it lands in Disneyland.

Yordan's campaign is the 36th 100-RBI season for an Astro. With 10-ish games to go, he can scale up the all-time single-season ladder pretty rapidly with a strong finish.

EDIT: 32 home runs ties Yordan for the 22nd most by an Astro in a season with the unlikely pair of Carlos Lee and Evan Gattis.

On that play by Meyers... I would say the base runner went the... er... "wrong" way.

Isn't that the 2nd one this week that Jake has laid out for and had bounce out of his glove?

The Russian judge awarded a 6.9 on that dive by Chas. That score will be thrown out.

Someone tell Yordan that we definitely don't need to see him lay out in LF.

Who are the bat boys on the road? Do they suit up some little league kid from the neighborhood?

A Red Sox fan in Carrabis's Twitter replies said Yordan/Tucker best combo under 25. I tend to agree. And it's fun because Bregman/Correa were also the best combo under 25 a couple years ago.

Home team provides the bat / ball boys for each team. I've always thought this was an untapped method for cheating seeing as the home team could place moles in the visiting dugout.

IDK if this is still the case but I had a friend who was a Padres bat boy that did not travel and sometimes served as the bat boy for the visiting team.

That was not how to slide into a base.

scrimp said:

Again, I think the cheating "ethics" in general is overblown in baseball, but the difference is akin to first degree vs second degree murder--the Astros (and multiple other teams--Astros just got caught red-handed) had an organized pre-meditated system. The Rays just picked up a scouting card when the opportunity presented itself.


Now do the Yankees whistling let week
