Oh wow, what a blast from the past.

What, exactly, did the umpires making ejection motions after the game had concluded think they were accomplishing?

Ejections can carry fines and suspensions, which can be a big deal in MiLB.

For managers, I know they are $1000 fines in MILB - I am not sure what they are in indy ball.

Announcers mentioned that they may have a hard time fielding enough players in the next game.

If the umpires were armed, this would never happen

Fucking Yankee fans think any pitch that a Yankee batter doesnā€™t drill MUST be a ball.

Talk about selling your soul to the devil: Matt Carpenter and Beelzebub must have reached a significant agreement.

You can run, you can run
Tell my friend Matt Carpenter
Run, you can run
Tell my friend Matt Carpenter
And Iā€™m standing at the crossroads
Believe Iā€™m sinking down

Walter Johnson, who also sold his soul to the devil.

24 pitches into his return start Chris Sale gets drilled on the left hand by a line drive, immediately walks off the mound while the ball is still rolling into RF.

Damn.

Current AL MVP odds:

Ohtani-110
Judge +130
Alvarez +1000

If it werenā€™t for the knowledge that the BBGs would smite me, those odds would make me out a lot of money on Yordan.

Thereā€™s no way a Coaster doesnā€™t win it.

You have a better chance of Trump going to prison than you do of Yordan winning MVP over Ohtani or Judge.
