Game Day Thread 7/5/2018 Angels at Mariners. Marte back. Ohtani on the bench.

[Stradling]

I realize that Span isn’t as fast as he once was, but that was a really good play made to look easy.  Simply the best to ever play the position.

Okay, I am voting right now.

Trout looked at a ball that was called a strike. At least 3 inches outside.

Memo from the commissioners office.  Trout will have a larger strike zone only to keep it fair

[JarsOfClay]

That was a strike. Trout is a little too walk happy.

Trout bats .405 in the fifth, his best inning. 

But not tonight.

[UndertheHalo]

Too close to take.  Still.

Cards' Luke Weaver has retired the first 15 Giants in SF.

Sandoval just struck out swinging after a 12-pitch AB.

 

[Stradling]

When was the last time he took an outside fastball and shot it to right?

I read that in The Onion.

[JarsOfClay]

Why are Gubi and Rojas pretending it wasn't a strike when the white box said it was and the overhead replay clearly showed it was? lol

[JarsOfClay]

Trout looks handsome with that haircut instead of the mohawk.

In the game of baseball.  Running is required.  Albert can’t run.  Enough of this shit.  They’re crazy if they run him out there again next season.

I don't see why it would be crazy. He sure as shit can't run out there himself, they have to do it for him if they want him in the lineup, duh. 

[eligrba4ever]

21 minutes until sunset in Seattle. Sure hangs up there up there.

Are you watching the mariners feed?  On FSW it was 3-4 inches outside, again.

No, angels feed. Replay I saw showed the ball hit the outside part of the plate. But maybe it was outside because Trout usually doesn't get that mad at a correct call.

Upton is one of the worst OF's I've ever seen. Period.

Jesus f*ck he's bad. 

[nando714]

More solid defense from upton 

what a waste of 100+ million

[Stradling]

Who thinks he is out at the plate if Upton picks it up the first time?

[Waybackman]

Upton has been an all star 4 times. Guess he saved his worst for us.
