A nice decisive call off on the pop up too. Give this kid some playing time!

Is McKenna - Bill Buckner??

I would take watching McKenna dropping a can of corn in Game 6 of the WS.

Melonie continues to be the wooooorrrst

[Gurgi]

I could do with some waffles and some sausage.  Orange juice and some coffee.  Sounds good.

No man, Buckner screwed up a ground ball.  McKenna dropped a flyball.

[SteveA]

Wow!   Jorge as some power this year!

[Gurgi]

Mateo took an odd looking swing.  But it went out fast.

[spleen1015]

OK JORGE!!!!

[dtk9119]

[Moose Milligan]

Mateo off the 2nd deck!  That was a bomb!

[Jagwar]

BOOOOOOM!

I think his strikeout and contact issues have been well noted on here.

Yes, he has some swing and miss to his game, but so do plenty of successful hitters.  He has legit power and put up close to a .900 OPS in both of his last two MiLB seasons.

Didn't see anything odd there.

Mateo being solid with the bat this season would give Elias some pretty good trade chips to get pitching help at the trade deadline.

Yes because a win is a win whether it's April 1 or Game 6
