I hope we're not looking past Oakland to the Blowjay tomorrow.

[O's84]

Gunnar putting on a show and were not even out of the 1st.

[yark14]

Gunnar is putting on a clinic in fielding.

[Bemorewins]

This Gunnar guy is pretty good at this baseball thing

[Gurgi]

We should change the name of the Orioles.   Change it to "Gunnar and the Hendersons"

[bpilktree]

Judge homers to give Yanks 1-0 lead.  They have absolutely no offense except for him since the All Star break.  6 guys hitting under .220 in their lineup today.  

[Hank Scorpio]

Nice lineup.

Just would prefer Rutschman C, Stowers RF, and Santander DH.

 

[Alasdaire]

Would really like to see Watkins go deep today. Will need all the arms we can get for tomorrow.

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Can we put to rest the notion that Odor is the only player on the team who can play 2B defensively now? 

[Hank Scorpio]

Pittsburgh has tied the Canadians.

Let me guess, you want Adley to catch both games of the doubleheader tomorrow as well?

[mrbig1]

Let's go Mount baby.

[eddie83]

Need to score here.
