0-2 against a terrible hitter and you give him something decent to make contact with? Just wipe out something low and outside and Rizzo will miss it every time. Or go high and in.

It was 2 inches off the plate.

Palmer getting frustrated with the home plate ump. I swear, Palmer would have been tossed from so many games with this batch of umpires.

If the runner takes a turn at first he’s committed to second, right? I remember at least one game this season where whether the runner had take the turn was a big question on a play.

Taking the turn to second just means you can be tagged out.

What?

That depends on whether the runner had taken a turn to second, and I guess he hadn’t yet, so there was no force?

oh gosh, here comes Soto and three straight home runs….

No it depends on NOTHING.   There is no force at 2nd when it is the batter.   Period.   Passing the base and coming back does not create a force either.   

[LookitsPuck]

Soto is the worst.

2 inches isn’t very big.

No. The runner can always go back to first. In fact, they almost always do when they hit a long single. 

[Sports Guy]

Don’t let this game get back to the top of their order.

Hoping he can get Stanton to earn the golden sombrero

[LookitsPuck]

Royals took lead on throwing error. 1-0 top 10. Marlins still up 4-1 T8 over Twins.

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Time to get some more insurance runs.

Soto. In a 2 run game. At Yankee Stadium. In the 8th inning.

Sounds good to me. (Actually, it sounded terrible. But it worked.)

I’ll take a couple more runs for the birds here.
