Running 2017 MLB regular season thread

The black and gold star patches on the left sleeves make it look like they either all went to Vandy or hit the merch table at Hamilton.

 

Hey FOX, do we need a mic for Scherzer's grunt on every pitch?

 

Dusty and Rizzo are shitting their pants with each grunt from Max.

 

Anybody remember Mike Trout? The face of baseball. I guess he has become chopped liver by the wave of Judge-mania. They might have at least mentioned him, since he was voted to start this game.

 

Yost just shit himself.

 

Glad that Smoltz told us before the game Maddon wasn't going to shift, play straight up baseball. Guess what the NL just did for the second batter of the second inning?

 

That AL starting lineup could well be the future of baseball. But on July 11, 2017, that's about as no-name an All-Star lineup as has ever been trotted out there.

 

MLB: Hey lets bring The Freeze to the All-Star Game and let him race.

The umpires were holding up two signs each, so clearly they care more about cancer than you.
