Trevor Bauer imitated the batting stances of Aviles, Raburn, and Kipnis while drawing his first career walk in a 9-pitch AB.

I really like to watch these two pitchers. Who does Harvey remind you of, Seaver, Clemens? Greinke is like a machine with his command. Harvey struggled with his control tonight, 5 walks in 5 innings, so Wade Miley should take heart a bit off his last outing. Mets are struggling big time with lack of offense. Only 4 out, they'll be buyers, I guess.Bob Montgomery's Helmet Hat said:
The Rangers are currently putting up one of the ugliest innings I've seen in a while vs the Angels. Bad pitching, bad luck, bad defense.

So Steven Matz has 5 RBIs in his first 2 games as a big leaguer.

Both Sale and Buehrle pitched a CG in Chicago today. Jays led 2-1 with 2 outs in the Bottom of the 8th before the ChiSox tied it on an Abreu single and took the lead on a Cabrera double.
Time of Game: 1:54

Also, Sale had less than 10 strikeouts, so he remains tied with Pedro for most consecutive games with 10 or more Ks (8). Giggity.shawnrbu said:
So the A's have the worst record in the AL, but they have the 4th best net runs. That's a pretty big swing between where they ought to be based on RS/RA and where they are.
They are something like 6-21 in 1 run games this season. Can't win close games.Cumberland Blues said:
I absolutely love having Vin Scully calling a game in the background while I do other stuff. I wish he could live forever.

Tonight he had 8 IP, 1 HA and 8ks and no runs allowed. His scoreless streak is now 35 2/3 innings (he hasn't allowed a ER since June 13). His ERA is a league-best 1.39

If you get a chance and you have MLB.tv, go back and watch/listen to the bottom of the seventh inning of the July 8 PHI @ LAD game. Nothing noteworthy happened on the field, but it just takes a few minutes it's vintage Scully. He recaps the whole game, gives light but sufficient treatment to the current game action, and weaves in a very touching version of the life story of the opposing team's middle reliever, Jake Diekman.
At the end of every season, I get sad with the realization that Scully might retire. Then, the random off-season day when I learn he's on board for another year is like my own personal Christmas. I will miss him like crazy when he finally hangs it up.
Trout with yet another 2-HR game tonight. He's hit 5 over his last 4 games and is now tied for the AL lead with 26. Incredible to watch him swing right now.
Another reason these next two games vs NY are so important to the Red Sox is the looming 4 game series against the Angels right after the break. They're the hottest team in baseball right now and have made up a ton of ground on Houston. Only .5 game back now.
Now that you mentioned it, I do remember him being introduced because he's Flash's son. I couldn't tell if you played or not because the combination of Buck, Reynolds, and Jeter's final All Star game drove me away very quickly.Papelbon's Poutine said:

NO WAY. Three-homer game for Kirk Nieuwenhuis. Had 3 hits entire first tour with Mets. #Mets 5, #Dbacks 2

Kirk Nieuwenhuis: first-ever #Mets player to hit three home runs at home. That's EVER.

The St. Louis/Pittsburgh game is very entertaining. Pirates just tied it up 5-5 in the bottom of the 10th
And the Pirates walk off for the second straight night.

The game last night (Saturday) was one of the best ganes I've ever seen. A lot of friends are Pirates fans and said to watch it so this morning I did. Highly entertaining.
Bob Costas is calling the Dodgers/Nats game, he is trying to fill time since the lights are out. God is it excruciating.
