    Only if you’re going to build teams/lineups based on unpredictable wind patterns…

    Patented Espada ‘squeeze a little more’…

    Maybe he’s going to go all off-speed stuff here and throw them off.

    try to find it in your heart to have the same patience for Chas that you had for Jake for those 2 full seasons.

    “He’s throwing a no hitter! How dare you take him out…”

    Well, he got an extra out for a baserunner. The basic plan to go after 2 hitters before the lefty (fresh reliever has to face 3) makes sense.

    Average popups are an adventure today in that wind.

    Who made the whole "dugout varied celebration on a homer" thing with the camera filming at the end a thing aka popular? Who did it first? I dunno. I'm curious.

    Good s**t, didn't let the blind bandit ruin it for you.

    In retrospect, looking at what Espada was trying to accomplish sending Dubin back out there, it was actually a pretty sound strat.

    Luckily the missed strike 3 call doesn’t hurt us but man it’s getting tiresome. The calls have heavily gone against us on the season overall. If only there was a way to make the games more fair…

    Oh wait.
