Cedric Mullins has been upgraded to "pesky"

Holy crap, Rio!

2-3-4 hitters. 3rd time through the order. This is a good test for Means.

Ball four to Mancini.

Vazquez caught it pretty low. When there's robot umps maybe that's called but you don't generally get that call from human umps.

Quite the long spell of sitting for John Means, let's see

Eovaldi taking an L this game would be hilarious.

Oh hello there, Rio Ruiz

Hahaha, sit down, Xander.

There's like 500 people in attendance, fellas. Yell to each other on fly balls.

Get ready to take a drink when Scott or Jim says for the first time "shadows becoming a factor."

Ah yes, Bob Marley's famous "Redemption Time"

Ruiz upstaging Franco, hahaha

Yankee Stadium home run.

This ump has a tight strike zone.

Ruiz with a gift walk, let's hope Hays brought his Florida bats with him.

NYC cameras must have picked up something else because nothing on MASN made me think he got him.

Quality starts for Bundy and Gausman. A scoreless inning for Darren O'Day. Hanser Alberto came in as a defensive substitution for KC and it looked like he had an infield hit but the Rangers challenged and he was ruled out at first to go 0-1. Jose Iglesias went 0-4 but had a clutch play in the field to prevent a leadoff hit in the eighth. Mike Yaz went 0-5 with 3 Ks. I have nothing against him but it would be pretty nice not to have any more threads on the main board moaning about him.

Usually Sully does the In Memoriam video at the All-Star Break but it's out for Opening Day this year.

I'm actually fine with this. I hate waiting another 24 hours for Opening Day, but I hate that day off between Opening Day and Game 2 even more. Now we get seven straight days of baseball.

I'm surprised that Devo wasn't already in, honestly. Shows how much I'm paying attention.

I thought it was a little up and in. I'm glad he laid off it, actually.

Regarding the rule about the infielders' feet having to be on the infield dirt, is there any rule about how far back the infield dirt goes? Could the Rays theoretically just make the infield dirt extend 150 feet into the outfield so that they can shift all they want?

Kind of a bitter irony he would say that on the same day that Jose Iglesias goes viral for an incredible play he made in the field.

Does Chris Davis make more than the rest of the roster combined yet?
