@Dom_Cotroneo what time do you release your brewers weekly for Thursday?
Really enjoy you work and after watching the Crew tune in the next day to catch your views on the game. I live in Virginia, so the postgame doesn’t stay on long enough to catch you live.
@bcow82 To answer the question. Probably is working a plate during a midweek. Also when you’re doing it at that level it’s like riding a bike. Just get back in there and go.
Dodgers contracts worth more than $100M:
Shohei Ohtani: 10 years, $700,000,000
Mookie Betts: 12 years, $365,000,000
Yoshinobu Yamamoto: 12 years, $325,000,000
Kyle Tucker: 4 years, $240,000,000
Blake Snell: 5 years, $182,000,000
Freddie Freeman: 6 years, $162,000,000
Will Smith: 10 years, $140,000,000
Tyler Glasnow: 5 years, $136,562,500
@Chris__Edwards As an umpire, a tremendous job. CF opens his hips to left field line helping Fairchild know he has the boundary ball. Clear call by him. Also props to all the umpires for staying locked in and not getting lost in the moment.
The infield fly rule didn't save Chicago when Cubs first baseman Michael Busch, blinded by the sun, lost track of William Contreras' pop fly during NLDS Game 3 vs Milwaukee. Umpires didn't call infield fly because "ordinary effort" did not exist. https://t.co/ty8oHoI8jI
@UncleSloppyJoe@CyrtHogg Reading the rule book as well. That last line is key. The rule is to protect the offense not the defense so that no one drops the ball on purpose. There was nothing ordinary about that effort.
@UncleSloppyJoe@CyrtHogg If the infielder is not set under the ball you can’t call an infield fly rule. That last part of ordinary effort. 1B had no idea where the ball was even at. Therefore he didn’t give ordinary effort.
@UncleSloppyJoe@CyrtHogg As an umpire you look at the fielders. The fielders take you to the ball. There was no ordinary effort given by any infielder. Correct application of the rule.
@CorySchmitt4@SamKuffelWx I used to be a clubhouse manager in the minor leagues and the running joke was always “well I think there’s a window” 😂 Would really be nice to sweep those 1st two games today!
Final: Brewers 10, Reds 8
Team Streak, meet Team Unique. The Brewers have tied a franchise record with their 13th straight win. This one was the most unbelievable yet, erasing an 8-1 deficit and 2 homers from Christian Yelich wielding a Ueck bat. Absurdity.
The record: 77-44

. @Dom_Cotroneo Do the Brewers become the OriolesBraves of years past where they talk about how great their farm system is and stand pat and never get any big league ready talent for said prospects? When there’s an overflow of pitching and skilled up the middle guys got to move.
