Did David Ortiz play? I didn't hear him mentioned at all.

I don't think he is good anymore or something.

That maybe true, but even Atlanta and Pittsburgh has managed to get on SNB recently. I believe Pittsburgh was on 2 weeks in a row.

Atlanta was because of the Fort Bragg game, and the Pirates were playing the Dodgers and Cubs. ESPN only cares about money and ratings. An Orioles/Indians game would be great TV, but it won't make them money, so it won't be on SNB.

And you can read all of this as, "I hate ESPN".

Will Britton close it out if a save opportunity?

It would appear so.

Safe. Ran well.

Kevin Gregg's right hook couldn't quite connect like that.

NL has all the big fanbases. Dodgers, Cubs, Mets, Cardinals, and Giants. All of those teams are good. The AL has the Yankees and Red Sox, and the Yankees aren't worth watching.

Wasn't aware 3 years in a row.

I remember 2 years ago all that was mentioned during the all star game was Jeter. Every other word was Jeter.

Girardi isn't in the building so it won't be 2 plus innings.

I enjoyed the All Star Game far more when we sucked. The chance that our lone representative might do something good was our one chance for glory that year. Now, I just fret that our guys are going to hurt themselves.

Alright time for Brach and Britton. Then we host game 1 of the WS.

I would assume that the owners would have insisted upon a pre-determined rotation scheme years ago....don't know why the Commish even has the power to punish or reward.

The commissioner works for the owners.

It is safe to conclude that the majority of the owners agree with the decision.

PGA has never been a member of their club. He refused to employ scabs when they attempted to break the Players' Union. He consorted with Fidel Castro.

And the MASN thing
