@Obscurity1234@dgoold@stltoday I suspect that official league reports show up well after informal "sources," and everybody is rushing to report what IS known as quickly as possible, based on info that emerges piecemeal from unofficial (but trusted by the reporter) sources.
@JayThomas119186@JomboyMedia Absolutely the right call. He clipped the 3b glove going by. It’s 100% up to the runner to avoid a fielder fielding or moving to field a batted ball, even if he has to stop or leave the baseline to do it.
@RorySmith Hey, I’ve tried to exit that parking lot after a Royals baseball game with 30,000 people and it was a nightmare. I know it’s a World Cup and why miss a single minute, but with the game decided and Messi out it’s understandable.
@Vincentvem@Super70sSports@nela_soul Buzz Aldrin. But seriously, the AL and NL were completely separate then, and he went through everything Robinson did.
@O_T_Lee@johnrabe Benetti’s going to do PBP every week, just a coincidence that it happens to be the Tigers tonight. But the two analysts will rep the teams.
@AugieNash And this one belongs to the Reds. Marty Brennaman’s signature call of the last play of every Reds win. Their version of Jack Buck’s That’s a winner.
@splodem@JeffPassan One, the Rockies never go outside the organization, and two, he's been out of baseball for 10 years and was on nobody's radar for this job AFAIK.
@OfpMatt@JeffPassan DePodesta was the opposite of a small-ball advocate in Oakland -- remember they got rid of bunting, stealing, hit-and-runs, etc. -- and OBP works anywhere.
@JohnMilner51@AugieNash Going from memory, Dodger and Wrigley have the home dugout on the 3B side. Most are 1B, however. I read once that 1B is favored because it’s a shorter trip for guys who make outs, as most batters do.
