@DodgersNation Roki was playing well before that blister issue. I hope when he gets back it’s fully healed, we need him in the pen in October probably more important than Diaz especially if he can’t bounce back after this current IL situation.
@Maxwell1995Vjjo One bad pitch dude. It’s up to the hitters to give him run support. 2 earned runs in 7.1IP means he got the job done. Also, he got the win.
@TyLawson3 Ofc he’s gonna say that, he played for Denver. Ok, they can have the better record but they won’t win a ring again for a while and Jokic might leave Denver next season.
@pavyg@WTA@usopen Eala lost and still she’s still your topic. Why not focus on those 3 you mentioned? This is not journalism, this is a hate propaganda.
Coco Gauff was asked if she can relate to the pressure Alex Eala has on her shoulders, ‘No, I can’t at all. Because she’s the first Filipino player to break a lot of the barriers… she’s doing similar things to what Manny Pacquiao is doing for her country’
“As someone who carries the hopes of the American nation on your shoulders, can you empathize with what she has to cope with with the massive Filipino support she gets?”
Coco: “No, I can’t at all. Because she’s the first Filipino player to break a lot of the barriers that she’s done. Especially on the female side, when you speak of athletes from the Philippines, she’s doing similar things to what Manny Pacquiao is doing for her country. I’m lucky to be from the U.S. where we had a lot of icons to look up to. People who have already broken down doors for me to be here where I am. I can’t empathize in that aspect. The only way I can is maybe just like the hype of everyone expecting you to win every single match. I guess I can empathize on that standpoint. But I definitely think she has more pressure, from the outside looking in, she has more pressure. As far as our relationship, Alex and I are friends. Her family reminds me so much of mine. She has a brother. Both of her parents are usually with her at tournaments. She’s just such a cool nice girl and someone I’d like to get to know even more. We just went for dinner for the first time in Toronto. I got to know her a bit more then. We played doubles together obviously. I have a lot of respect for her and what she’s doing. But I can’t really empathize. I feel like she has more pressure than I do.”
