That's cool, I have that little thing on Gameday that shows the fielders and the orange ball. Last weekday game I was following at work, Tony and Denise were talking about it, but I didn't have it for some reason. Now I do. This is fun. Correction: the orange balls are the baserunners.

Yeah, had a huge dropoff last year. Of course he isn't young, and he'd never had a year like 2022 before.

Hey, I'm at work following on Gameday. Those of you watching, please keep me up to date on all the cookie-related happenings in Anaheim today!

You think they bring up McKenna??

I was kind of surprised it's not Urias.

Going with the hot hitter? Santander 1.017 OPS last 7 games. And hitting LH much better than RH this year (and a little better over the entire course of his career).

And while he is hitting both well, his average is still 78 points higher vs RH than LH. And he's 3 for his last 18. Santander has a 1.017 OPS his last 7 games.

Our first loss with Burnes or Rodriguez on the mound this year. Back to second place. But our arguably 4 best relievers are all rested for tomorrow with an off day the next day. Holliday raised his batting average 25 points.

Well, at least Holliday swung at it this time.

Esteves hasn't pitched in a week. Maybe rusty? OK, grasping at straws, but straws is all we got.

Great bullpen work from Tate and Ramirez.

Damn this review might overturn it.

Yohan with the pickoff!

Nah with them it's all caviar and goat-cheese-and-fig hors d'oeuvres.
