Running 2017 MLB regular season thread

Overcome Buck? I don't get it.

 

Not a big fan of Showalter's managing, including two nights ago when he put the go-ahead run on intentionally in the ninth inning.

 

If ever the Cubs needed a night off, it was yesterday, heading into St. Louis tonight.

 

Damn, this might actually get me to games.

A’s unveil monthly ballpark pass under $20

 

Dallas Keuchel. RAW like sushi.

 

Too bad you still have to be in Oakland and watch the A's.

 

That is a definite mitigating circumstance.

 

The Yankees are promoting a less expensive standing room pass. As if.

 

I can see Rogers Centre from my office, if the Jays had something like that I'd be there every night

 

In the one year I lived in Oakland, 1973, when the A's were defending world champs, Monday was half-price night. Not just tickets, concessions and parking too. A bleacher seat was $2 bucks usually, so a $1 entry fee got you access to cheap beer, cheap dogs, and the opportunity to watch a really good baseball team while getting sloshed at prices anyone who wasn't homeless could afford. Met a lot of very interesting if cheap people out there in those games.

 

Angels do this, but it's $49 fot the month. You find out where your seat is about 2 hours before the game.
