Games 99/100 Thread: July 18 19 @ Yankees, 9.30a / 4p

An off-center shot. But still satisfying.

Yoshinobu vs. Ryan Weathers / Emmet Sheehan vs. Cam Schlittler

Friday night's massive Max Muncy home run (in a pretty great at bat, by the way, working a 0-2 count back to square and then just mashing) put the Dodgers up 2-1, which was all they needed for the victory in the opener of this series. Friday night was the Dodgers' first visit back to Dodger Stadium since the 2024 World Series Game 5, where Gerrit Cole also performed valiantly...until he didn't.

Kinda rings a bell, right?

Round two is now a doubleheader on Sunday, thanks to rain on Saturday postponing the second game.

im checking out new york live cams. Rain has stopped but the sky looks crazy overcast. not sure how much the Ontario fire is affecting the visuals.

Roki looked different on friday literally. like he aged a few years in a week. something was different. he was on point for most of the game and never had that concerned look that he always gets when he gives up hits. he'd ask for a ball quick like lets go. he also shoulder bumped Rushing on the way back to the dugout one time. never seen him with that kind of emotion. i could be wrong but i seriously think he got laid over the break

spank said...

i was up pacing at the end of the soccer match. fucking refs kept taking goals away from Spain

Steve Sax said...

Why does Pages keep unsuccessfully challenging strike calls? In the first inning with no leverage, no less?! Is he hanging out with Alex Call?!

Steve Sax said...

Kyle Tucker is fucking awful.
