@BluejaysAlways I'm surprised that it took half a season for this to occur.

@sigsox1918 @jimsoxfan The ball remains live. If the catchers throw goes onto CF the runners are eligible to advance.

On Saturday there was:

a cycle (Harper)
a 3-HR game (Schwarber)
a 2-HR inning (Schwarber)
a walkoff HR (Albies)
a leadoff inside-the-park HR (McCarthy)
a grand slam (Buxton)
a 10-run inning (Twins)

Never in MLB history had more than 4 of those 7 feats occurred on the same day.

The Pirates are the only MLB team in the last 50 years to have the tying run on 3rd with 0 outs in the 9th inning 2 games in a row but lose both games.

[Statman @sultan_of_stats]

The Pirates are 0-7 in the last 7 starts by Paul Skenes, who is 0-5 in that span.

Per source, Blue Jays have acquired utility INF Luis Urias from the Arizona Diamondbacks for cash considerations. @baseball_lib and @MitchBannon were on it.

RHH Urias has played parts of eight seasons with five MLB clubs. Career .231/.329/.378 hitter. Low chase rates throughout.
