If games were only 5 innings long Alex Wood would be the goat.

Giants eating

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!

I just tuned in to my first live A's game of the season in the middle of the sixth inning and the A's have now scored 4 straight runs without recording a single out...

I missed you too A's baseball!

Greetings. Remember that the important thing is quality, not quantity. Even if it's just one fan who attends the game tonight, I will play very hard for that one fan to go home happy. https://t.co/8kreKz1eDT

Joc absolutely that dude who you hate on every other team, but immediately love when he's on your squad.

I couldn't stand the guy as a Dodger (for obvious reasons). I really had no opinion of him as a Cub or a Brave. And I am glad he is a Giant.

One of the injury risk pitchers is shockingly injured.

Thankfully I think he tweaked something in his leg with all the running to 1st he's done today. Nothing with the arm.

 

[SLAB]

This game was stupid.

Remember when Doval was good for like a month?

Edit; nvm, still good. Lmao

BS overturn. Deserve to lose though if you don’t score the ghost runner.

Update: Not BS

Nothing like a double header to burst your bubble in a 2 hour time frame

 

[SLAB]

Losing to Scherzer is fine. Losing that first game was unacceptable.

 

[Tetsujin]

Game was moved up 3.5 hrs with less than a day’s notice.

No one cares about the Orioles.

Season-ticket base gutted via huge price hikes.

A’s traded popular players after unpopular lockout.

Ownership went to Vegas after the home opener.

Anyone who blames the fans is an idiot. https://t.co/Gzlx9YLIlQ

Carlos Rodon is like fully tapping into his K stuff. Jesus man, so, so good. Control looks solid too, locates when he needs to come in. 15.35K/9 is insane through 3 starts.

Ty Rogers has to lead the majors in nonsense soft-ground balls becoming hits. So annoying.

Lol all the weak garbage then a guy murders a ball and very much not defensively gifted Wilmer robs him.

 

[The_Jamal]

Gotta be happy with 8-4 and what should be 9-3 if they didn't blow both games vs the Mets yesterday. Offense has largely underperformed outside of a few games and basically everyone has been incredibly inconsistent outside of Joc and Belt.

Pitching looks incredibly good. Honestly looks like if we can score 3-4 runs, we're going to have a pretty great chance to win the game. Doval has probably been the most shaky guy on the entire staff thus far, but has the best stuff if he locks in.

His bad outings were so so bad… it’s why I always thought his season was closer to a fluke than the new normal. I never bought into him like I did with Gausman’s redemption seasons.

Cubs trading RHP Cory Abbott to the Giants, sources tell @Stadium and @BallySports.

Ramos time knce again?

 

[The_Jamal]

Yaz starting to hit been one of the few bright spots in this series. Him being 19-20 Yaz instead of 21 Yaz would solve some serious offensive issues.

BB rate remaining solid, but he's been reducing the K's in the early going. Down to 15.9% this year as opposed to a career 25%

 

[Tetsujin]

One hit away from 3,000, the Yankees elected to intentionally walk Miguel Cabrera in what will likely be his last AB of the game. Tigers fans were not pleased.

What an insane decision. Austin Meadows is an infinitely better hitter than Miggy currently.

Yeah, but it looks like a straight-up platoon split, a lefty pitcher walking a righty to get to a lefty. If Miggy weren't at 2999 nobody would have batted an eye.

 

[LPKingsFan]

And it’s not like the Tigers are about to go on a road trip, no?
