Mariners are my new favorite team!Rays heading to 9th tied with Mariners, 2-2. This shit is getting ridiculous with blowing close games so we’ll see if they can break the pattern today.

They did it!No problems for Seattle in the Top of the 10th. Time to walk this off.
Just when it looked like Tampa was going to run off and hide, Rays lose six in a row.Pathetic.
Good call.I'm fully expecting Wander to debut on Tuesday.
Looked like they also had him pull his belt out just a little bit to check that as well, the full TSA experience.They also checked his glove and hat after the inning.
deGrom doesn't really need an outfield or an infield.Have to say that the Mets OF is awful.
Good for Ross. Dick Williams would be proud.David Ross just took Javy Baez out of tonight's game after Baez got doubled up on the bases - because he forgot how many outs there were.
I didn't know there was a minimum number of innings required for awards.Will he qualify for the CY award given how far behind he is in innings?
Kevin Long, who coached for Girardi in NY, was screaming obscenities at Girardi from the WAS dugout, and that’s who Girardi was yelling back at, not Scherzer. There’s a Jomboy breakdown of it because of course there is:Scherzer was dealing against the Phillies when Girardi asks the umps to check him for sticky substances in the middle of the fourth, after a strikeout. It's apparently the third time that Scherzer was checked in the game. Scherzer drops his hat, glove and untucks his shirt, inviting the inspection.
Words are exchanged between Girardi, Scherzer and Davey Martinez.
Scherzer ends the 5th with his 8th k of the night. Walks off and stares over at the Phil's dugout. Girardi, apparently respecting the game, leaps out of the dugout yelling let's go, and gets tossed for being an idiot.
He was yelling back at Long who was screaming 'fuck you!' across the field at him, he was using his name. And I'm not sure how you're so sure about the outcome of a theoretical fight between two 50-something former player/current coaches, but ok.Whether he was yelling at Long or Scherzer, the fact is that Girardi is a complete ass. One can only hope that someone takes him up the next time he issues an empty challenge and hits him so hard he can’t eat ice cream.
Nothing I said precludes a finding that Kevin Long is also an ass.He was yelling back at Long who was screaming 'fuck you!' across the field at him, he was using his name. And I'm not sure how you're so sure about the outcome of a theoretical fight between two 50-something former player/current coaches, but ok.
Girardi is a fucking asshole. He is indefensible. Reds is right, he's just an asshole.He was yelling back at Long who was screaming 'fuck you!' across the field at him, he was using his name. And I'm not sure how you're so sure about the outcome of a theoretical fight between two 50-something former player/current coaches, but ok.
This is exactly right. I watched that game and it was a complete joke. Girardi should have to manage in a clown suit for the next month as penance for that performance.Girardi is a fucking asshole. He is indefensible. Reds is right, he's just an asshole.
What he did yesterday was petty and ridiculous. Further, he got the response he was looking for because he's a troll and trolls get fed, but he made a mockery of himself. He deserved to be told fuck you. Sometimes, people earn it.
This seems hard to believe:Nationals just battered the Phillies pitcher (David Hale) for 6 runs in the 6th, culminating in a grand slam to take an 11-9 lead.
Hale being checked by umps as he left the mound is the cherry on the shadenfreude sundae.
I feel like a guy who gets his lunch should be exempted from the search. If he is cheating, it's clearly not working.Nationals just battered the Phillies pitcher (David Hale) for 6 runs in the 6th, culminating in a grand slam to take an 11-9 lead.
