2025 MLB running thread

[I Should Coco]

AL Central, baybeeee! First to 83 wins takes it all!

Pains me to say it, but the AL Central champ might be whichever team sweeps its season series with the ChiSox.

I understand that response. As the game proceeded, however, I found it harder to feel sorry for Povich, who allowed more hits -- all of them of the hard-hit variety -- than a disinterested security guy at a Dead show.

I know he's still young, but Povich is frustrating, too.

He absolutely has an MLB-level repertoire. The command is fleeting. Lot of "mistake" pitches that would fly in AA, but not here.

He made the catch, but perhaps at a price.

3 things.
1. Giants just walk it off against SEA
2. Mariners RF just made one of the most incredible catches against the wall/net you'll ever see and broke/tore something in his arm in the process.
3. #9 for the Giants. His name is Mike Yastrzemski. Quit calling him Yas.
He is not Yas. I know that's his grandpa. Yas was Yas. Mike is not.

That, plus Yas was Yaz. (I know me some 1967.)

Great job by the announcer, getting the guy's name wrong on multiple occasions and calling out the wrong injured body part. Good job. Good effort.

Meanwhile, here's the slo-mo of it, which looks like they put it into rewind when he goes over the wall, but it's just the way he bounced off the net and rebounded back onto the field.

4. Seven straight for the Giants. RIP Farhan Ball. Long live Buster Ball.

Nice job by the announcer to misidentify the player. Twice.
Arozorena was in left all game, so it wasn't a missed defensive switch.

Tigers just got three to cancel out their opening series against the Dodgers

And the Mariners broadcast at that.

That's Yaz with a z. If people are calling him Yas, they're altering the name and it's thus OK.
