The bigger question is how the fuck does this HR by Edwin get measured at only 419 Feet?

Trumbo just hit a HR to make it 50 Hrs on the night.

Sorry for pimping deadspin on here so often, but after the blown call at the Indian's game last night they have a good article up about MLB's review system and how most of us have bigger screens on our phone. The first few replays I saw made it hard to tell that that ball wasn't deflected off the wall, and I'm sure that STO had better video guys than the MLB.

Rays' P Alex Cobb had a historic night.

#1 - He set an MLB record by striking out 13 batters in 4-2/3 innings (two other batters grounded out to SS), but since it took him 117 pitches to do it he didn't even get out of the fifth.

#2 - He turned in this all-timer of a line for an inning. 1IP, 4K, 0BB, 0H, 1ER. Venable reached on a wild pitch, stole second, stole third, then scored on a balk. I don't think that tops Cingrani's 4Ks in an inning and getting out of the inning with the bases loaded though.

Miguel Cabrera just destroyed the ball tonight. 4-4 with three monster home runs. He inside-outed his third to center field. Incredible.

And their pen still find a way to blow it :lol: they'll be there when it counts though, and Miggy is such a treat to watch. This might be the best hitting season by anyone is a long, long time.
