I'll be honest, if I were an MLB gm, and my lefty specialist came into a game and walked the lefty he was facing on 4 pitches, I'd be faxing the league office his release papers before he even gets off the mound. It's probably one of many reasons I'm not an MLB gm.

Maybe, but he was 100% in the right there

incredible contrast between starting the inning with Sheets's attempt to catch a pop fly and ending it with Robert making a catch look routine that plenty of CFs would be diving for.

Love that that happened just a half inning after Stone's speech about baseball players being more athletic than ever before.

Maeda's ERA just went from under 1.5 to 4.15. Early season stats lol

True, but it was also a cookie and Alvarez crushed it. Not letting Diekman off the hook because Benintendi could have made a better play on the ball (still would have been tough).

The only surprising thing is that Alvarez didn't hit a home run.

Most of the game I was thinking to myself "welp, same old Sox." and honestly, the still might be. One game is a small sample size. But to win this game the way they did, against the Astros especially, felt like exorcising some demons. More importantly, it also felt really really really good

Thank you for using this correctly. For whatever reason, I've seen a bunch of people this year (not here) saying things like "Hope springs eternal in the spring!" The pun is already built in guys, that's the point. We aren't quoting a 300 year old poem because we are super into enlightenment era philosophy.

Just put Liam in!! If he blows it he blows it, but you NEED to maximize your chances to get to the tenth here

Matt manning has to have one of the most "average" faces I've ever seen. Dude looks like one of the default faces in a video game character builder.

Cleveland really gave us a gift today. And unlike the rest of the year, in the Miggy era the White Sox actually take advantage.

I'd put my foot on the ball until I could figure out how to put some stuff down, but he didn't look steady enough to manage that tbh
