As to that .367...wasn't it Ty Cobb's lifetime batting average?
ReplyDeleteI do believe you're right, Hoss.
ReplyDeleteLast year, we were left wondering what kind of numbers Judge would have put up if he had hit during April. Looks like we might find out.
The Martian delivers. Clears the bases.
ReplyDeleteYou might say his play has been out of this world lately.
DeleteBoone is still an idiot.
Nice competitive AB by Rice there. Who needs insurance runs with Aroldis Williams coming in?
ReplyDeleteI don't understand Rodon has about as good if not better stuff than Fried....why can't he pitch as good 😒
ReplyDeleteWoo hoo!
ReplyDeleteGood win, powered by good start by Fried, clutch hit by JD, & clean save by DW.
ReplyDeleteMore like this, please…
Boone said Martian lost his contact, that's why he replaced him in the 7th
ReplyDeleteI assume he meant the thing in his eye, not contact with earth a la major Tom

ReplyDeleteLet’s hope he actually wears contacts
