J.P. Crawford is the second player in @MLB history to score the game’s only run in his 1,000th career game.
Crawford joins Art Devlin (also at 3B) for the NY Giants on Sept. 17, 1910. The starting pitchers in that game were named Hooks Wiltse & Bunny Hearn. 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ #TheMayerGWS
@heygoldy is the king of lame states, someone needs to tell him Woo 31 run less innings still has the Mariners in 2nd place and probably wild card if we even make the playoffs.
Do better.
Cole Young: second-“youngest Young” with a multi-homer game in @MLB history, trailing only Delmon Young on May 17, 2007. Both Cole & Delmon did it out of the 7-spot in the batting order! #TheMayerGWS

Cole Young is the first Pittsburgh-born visiting player to homer in his first game IN Pittsburgh since William “Baldy” Louden homered for the Buffalo BufFeds off Mysterious Walker of the Pittsburgh Rebels on April 22, 1914 in the Federal League. 🔱🏴☠️ #TheMayerGWS
We're excited to introduce Tony Castricone as the organization’s new radio play-by-play announcer 📻
With more than two decades of experience, @Castricone was selected to succeed Buccaneer legend Gene Deckerhoff and lead Buccaneers Radio Network coverage.
Welcome to the Krewe, Tony! 🏴☠️
Weird stuff going on with Logan Gilbert's four-seam fastball...
Season avg: 95.5 mph, 16.9" iVB, 2,112 rpm
Last two starts: 96.3 mph, 18.3" iVB, 2,333 rpm
63%(!!) usage in his last two outings too, up from 33%. Spin/velocity + usage trendline below. Weird one! 🤔
Players to homer in 3-straight games before turning 21. Colt Emerson has a chance to be just the 13th player ever with a HR today.
(Junior was 21, A-Rod was 22)
@psainsley He only said it twice today! And I said it once just to troll him. (We talked about 💯before the game.)
He’s *very* new to broadcasting. Has barely called 10 games. Learning lots, and learning fast.
