The most irritating about all star unis instead of regular team unis is the numbers. JDM and Arenado wearing identical 28s is confusing. Them wearing a Dodger 28 and a Cardinal 28, not confusing.

Fittingly, the last guy with 2 knocks and a caught stealing in the ASG was Edgar in 1997.
Not asking you to do the work, but there has to be a story behind an Edgar Martinez CS in 1997. In an ASG.

Btw--Just for giggles, everyone should look at Edgar's b-ref page.

To further the exhibitionism, they should have a ghost runner every inning the game is tied after the first.

Wow just checked Gameday for their bench and they don't even have any more OF on the bench!

In his 11 year career, Castellanos has never played CF. How does the NL bench not have a CF? :D

It made the elementary school kid in me cry. It's the middle of July, and I'm watching baseball. The last thing I want to see is a September date on my screen as it's a reminder that summer will come to an end before I know it.
Holy shit. That's the same dread/anxiety I used to feel when all the ads for the "new fall season" network tv shows would start popping up. (Back when there was only network tv).

The cradle of the game.

It works both ways though. Lush, green promos for The Masters roll out in frigid January

Damn, Ortiz is moving in to be Soto's neighbor? Maybe he can sell him on signing in Boston

I still can't fully enjoy the month of August because the back to school depression is so ingrained

Poor Soto having to play the sun field while also distracted by the announcers in his ears
