Cool glad Santana gets the low strike and not Reynaldo.

Slider up too much and it's 6-3.

Thank you both for providing real answers.

This doesn't answer any of the questions I asked. Which countries? And how are these countries prosecuting or even identifying people who are suspected "spreaders"? Which of them have identified "patient zero" in their country?

You keep making this assertion without any sort of evidence to back it up. I just explained why this is an incredibly difficult problem to solve. Please outline how this granular tracking process would work, or provide resources that do.

No, we can't. We can model them and arrive at a reasonable location, date and time. We know cases diagnosed and who those people are. We cannot map out who was where when they were infected, nor who was near them that may have contributed to the infection, nor if it was one person or multiple people who contributed to the infection.

Covid is not an STD. There's a clear trail of evidence in those cases. Covid spread is near impossible to trace to a single person.

Too many hits. Had to run the bases too much. He could just strike out in every at-bat today. Save some energy.

Crochet seems to be figuring it out in the bullpen.

Tim ripped that but right to the CF.

For Toronto that would have ended up fair

And now they look completely silly on Tepera's slider in the same exact counts.

Beckham agrees - the pitch to Semien aside, some of those sliders weren't bad pitches. Every one got hit hard somewhere with 2 strikes.

Also Toronto hitters apparently think everything they don't swing at is a ball.

Toronto is playing like a team that knows it needs to win every game to make the postseason.

The slider to Semien was a hanger. Some of the other ones weren't. They were either sitting on it to the exclusion of all other pitches (which come on Zavala pick up on that), or he was tipping. I'd think Beckham knows the signs of a pitcher tipping as well.

Ok, that wasn't a slight mistake.

It seems like every even slight mistake our bullpen makes is being punished by Toronto. This team can hit man.

That hit Kirk on a bounce. Don't know if I've ever seen that called a HBP.

Good pitch but Gurriel was sitting fastball. Wasn't even a strike.

Thanks for swinging 3-0 Marcus I guess - hey while I have you wanna come play second for the Sox next year?

Maybe they wanted the unintentional intentional walk there, and see if Vlad got himself out, but he's also one of the best hitters in baseball and his dad is the best bad ball hitter maybe ever, so...

15 innings without a run

Not even close there Abreu. Helmet level.
