Rattling Urias by being on base.

Dodgers have allowed the most stolen bases this season. Probably why Dodger fans are quick to dismiss them.

Ronald has pushed his OPS over 1.0. And he slid ahead of Freddie in average

I'm loving the power output

Know what I find amazing ? As good as Acuna has been he only has 1 more HR than Aaron Judge who missed practically half the season with a broken toe. If he doesn't get hurt Judge had a real chance to break his own record.

It is a great battle for MVP with Betts and Acuna. I cannot tell you who I like better, but I loved watching the game yesterday. Add in teammates Olson and Freeman who are having absolute MVP quality years and with a big September could overtake them. Freeman has a legit shot, but Olson could still put up 145 RBI.

I don't care. I hate the Dodgers on principle, but I love this amazing baseball.

The comment about Acuna being more impressive than Ohtani thus far is so wrong, but I think you covered that. Acuna could end up being more impressive, but right now it is hands down Ohtani.

If your uncle doesn't have a penis how do you know it's your uncle?
If he does, then he is his own aunt?
But somehow this strange uncle of yours would become an aunt with a penis?
Is he/she becoming Judge's aunt with a penis?

You may need to wordsmith this one a little more.

With the HR and SB last night Ronnie passed 1973 Bobby Bonds, 1988 Jose Canseco and 1996 Barry Bonds. Acuna is now #5 All-Time.

It was blatantly obvious. Hopefully Dodger fans that downplay stolen bases noticed too. Urias clearly lost focus when Ronald was on base.

He would have had Ronald at 3rd by a mile, but our boy literally used the force to melt his brain for a second.

If Muncy can play third then Ronald can play second.
