And just like that...

Well, good for Houser. Now he can go off and win out for the rest of the season, then get himself a big, fat contract in free agency. Now, let's get after these Rays, and win tomorrow. Looks like a TBD start for us, maybe they call up Burke for the game, or go bullpen. Burke just had a nice game last Wednesday. Smith Wednesday.

Nick McLain and Casey Saucke are good hitters, and should have moved quickly through the system. Too bad they both missed the year with injuries.

Okay, rally starter

Mead's due.

This home plate ump sucks.

The one at the top was the only "French" song, and baseball is more of a metaphor for how hard a woman is. Hard as a baseball. That song is from a movie called Anna that was the first color film shown on French TV in 1967. Serge Gainsbourg wrote the music for the film and appeared in it. The other clip I played was from that film. The film allegedly sucks, I find the soundtrack intriguing.

There's not a lot of French songs about baseball.

I was looking up French songs about baseball. Who were those hockey guys?

Do that again.

Yo-Yo's clawing some of it back.

I feel like the curtain has been pulled back on Gomez.

He goes Real Teel.

Chris Bassitt was a 16th rounder in that same draft.

Fangraphs shows Houser as the scheduled pitcher for tonight. He's had more downs than ups since joining the Rays, but he's coming off of a nice 7-inning, 1 run outing against the Mariners. He's not announced, yet.

Before I forget.

And nobody changed any variables. I don't like the practice of people running from all over the section to grab a baseball away from a lady (anyone, really) who was bent over, trying to pick it up from in front of her. That all happened. I think the backlash is misogynist. No variables changed there, either. I compared her backlash to another viral incident from last week, which seems to confuse and anger you. One lasted about an hour, the other is going on for another day, now. Still nothing being "changed". 3rd, I'm uncomfortable with social pressure to "give a kid the ball". Still, nobody pretending something different happened. You're the only one changing variables, pretending she was a man. I'll accept your apology in 20's.

It did. Eagle jersey guy was still looking around her legs after dad of the year ran away with the ball.

And if 4 drooling goons ran up on my wife and started reaching around her legs, they'd be picking up teeth, not a baseball.
