Looks like he'll be a very good hitter.

He really looks comfortable up there. The outs are usually loud even if he doesn't get a hit

Challenge him. Don’t walk him.

NOTHING to hit please

Can we stop blaming Adley for the terrible umpires?

I get that but it’s still a question worth asking.

I can see that we don't want to put the tying run to the plate, but at the same time Akin vs Judge is likely to end up with a home run.

Just don't make a mistake to Stanton

It's like a lot of umpires are now unconsciously rating each catcher's framing as much as the location of the pitch.

[SouthRider]

Well look at that.  Akingot them both on pop ups.

Weird: Suzyn Waldman (Yankees color announcer) just oveerconfidently corrected her booth partner (the recently unretired John Sterling) that the TJ McFarland that is pitching for the A's is definitely not the one that used to pitch for the O's because he must be around "45" now. But it's the same player.

Re: the Silent K or J, Sterling pronounces Heston's name "Djerstad."

 

Didn't realize Sterling had unretired.   That didn't last long.

I'm good with challenging and I'm good with the walk. What we don't want is to groove a 3-0 or 3-1, and we've seen Akin do that befoee
