[Chavez Ravine]

Who is blowing those air horns?

[scOtt]

Seems like a low zone. High strikes not getting called. Low balls getting called. Looked like a ball....

Good question! Must be recorded...

[scOtt]

Out by a good bit it looked like.

I heard a dozen or so Phillies fans go to a street entrance (closed gate to the stadium) and cheer and blow air horns each game.   An opponent was complaining about it.   Even though normal crowd noise is louder than that, they say in this "golf crowd" environment it is jarring.

[Il BuonO]

Davis, the singles hitter.

[SteveA]

Hays and Davis with hits, too bad Austin erased himself.

 

[scOtt]

Wow, they got a LOT of those cutouts!

[SteveA]

MLB is underway in Buffalo.  Marlins 1, Blue Jays 0.

[ChuckS]

Hays doesn’t get on base enough to keep getting picked off and CS like he does.

Lot of CS in the minors too. Probably a guy who needs to stay put on the bags.

[scOtt]

Good play.

Can't use that term anymore.

I'd go with Nomads.

The TV guy said it was “ripped” but it looked like a seeing eye bouncer that found a hole.

[SteveA]

Wow, it's really hard to believe it's been 64 years since we swept a series, got swept, and swept a series consecutively.   Doesn't seem like it would be THAT rare.

Hope we can complete the sweep Friday.   Have they announced the start time for the suspended game pickup yet?
