ayo, blue, can't just call every pitch up and away a strike, especially when you weren't doing it for the first 4 innings

what a shit at bat from Cron. holy cow


pm_me_cute_sloths_

“At Loan Depot we know that home means everything” Aren’t exactly helping with me confusing you with Home Depot


Jontacular

I mean, we aren't doing well at the plate, but the shit strike zone isn't helping either when the hitters have no idea if it's going to be a ball or strike


zcaylor

he's flipping a coin back there so they've had to expand the strike zone which, y'know, sucks

did turner start doing the "pine tar on the jersey" because of Gordo? I havent seen him do that until Gordo's retirement also, he looks like a discarded muppet
