Typical AB for Diggs

I'll say one thing. He is very consistent. 
Not in a good way. 
The best pitch he saw was the 2-0 get me over fastball right down the middle. 
Took it.

Seems like someone should tell him to swing at every first pitch that's not obviously right at his head or toward the dugout for a while just to see if he accidentally makes contact.

[Gambler]

We need Souza to come out of that funk.

Top of the third.

Brinling walks on 4 pitches. Why can't our pitchers just throw strikes and let the defense do their thing? 1 on.

[Gambler]

Liar. If you don't want to watch this mess, just say so. 


As I type, yet another spectacular piece of work from Sand-Lot. They're trying to give us a run and we don't seem to want it.

[Thin Red Swine]

What happens when a wagon-dragging first baseman (resistible force) meets a noodle-armed left fielder (unmoving object)?

[Son of Spam]

Did Aloy's bat break in half?

Yep.
