WOW, that was crazy. Never seen a catcher’s interference like that before.
JULKS! Not quite a jolt, but a jerk maybe?
I like Julks.

I saw a thing the other day that noted that the team is 7-2 when Julks plays and 0-9 when he doesn’t. There’s a similar star for Maldy but in the other direction.
Nice way to start a ballgame.
That ball left the park in a hurry.
Good to see Meyers grinning like a goon in the dugout.

Have to jump on a call, someone take over PBP
In other news de Grom pulled from the game in KC after 4 innings, no baserunners.
Chapman homers
7-1
Great sliding catch by Bregman in foul territory ends the inning.
7-1
I don’t know whether Biggio’s ever going to amount to anything, it certainly looked like it at first, but good heavens does he have a pretty swing.

He had one walk.
What on earth was Meyers thinking throwing to third? He was never going to get Kiermier in 100 tries.
I’ve been curious how long it’s going to take him to get his obp > or = to his ba
Javier has to go deeper than this with such a big lead.
