Well worth the read

Slade Cecconi’s First Career Strikeout

Every pitcher remembers the first batter they've ever faced. But not every pitcher strikes that batter out on a foul tip that buries itself in the catcher's crotch.

Incredible prose. A masterpiece of words.

At least it’s against the Cubs now. Good god.

Braves put up a casual 7 run spot in the 4th with a myriad of singles, doubles, a triple and 2 home runs.

Oh how I enjoy watching the Cubs get a #6 worked up on them

I’m m about to piss myself. It took me 5 solid minutes to stop laughing at that.

The Mets have the same record as the Pirates and the Angels haven't won once since the trade deadline.

Baseball is a funny old game.

MLB Network game between Padres/Dodgers got highly entertaining, real fast.

Padres plate 5 in a blink of an eye - hammering first pitch after first pitch before you even knew what happened.

Dodgers respond with 8 (!!) runs including a Betts salami on 3-0 count. 8-5, top 4 still LA at the plate.

Hilarious.

MLB Net stat-

Dodgers have answered back in 38% of half innings after conceding a run since 2022.

The Pirates chase Spencer Strider in the 3rd inning by putting up 6 runs with 2 outs. It's his shortest outing of the season. Go figure.
