Trying his best with a good second season and that home run to get another Yankee contract.

Who will do something first, Witt or Judge? 0 - 4 so far from the probable MVP and runner up.

Interesting zone tonight

Tigers finally get burned by having only 1 guy they trust to start a meaningful game. Bullpenning works great until it doesn't

It's absolutely brutal to get 7 shutout, 1 hit innings from your starter and then lose. What a train wreck to go from that to a guy giving up 3 runs without recording an out

Go Royals

Out of town this weekend so difficult to watch ball, but the Dodgers/Padres series is going to be awesome

Royals might lose this just from walks

I personally like the human element, but I get why people want robo umps

That’s not clutch.

I wouldn't mind so much if the human element was better than what they have become. They influence the game too much with bad calls.

All these lead changes make for a great game

As long as the last lead change has the Yankees winning.

I don't see that happening anymore though. Clay will probably give up 3 or 4 runs.

We don’t need that dead ass tech #@#@#@#@.

No passionate arguing of balls and strikes. Haven’t we become soulless as a society? Do we need even less soul?

Chisholm wasn't going to let Volpe make another error.

Who argues anymore? These umpires have such thin skin and obviously believe people come to the stadium to see them and are quick to throw out players and managers.

Yeah but at least there’s a chance.

Robot umps is about the worst idea. We never realize implications before we see it first hand.

Have you never been to a minor league or Atlantic League game. I've seen it plenty of times and it is 100% better than the crappy calls we see in games from the current crop of MLB umpires.

Soto showing up both Judge and Witt so far in this series. Hal better be watching.

I’m the kind of guy that likes the emphatic strike 3 calls. We need more of those not robots.

And I'm the guy who would rather see a game decided by the players and not an umpire who can't call a correct strike zone so I'll agree to disagree with you.

All ws champs deserved to be champs.

Bottom line.

[fulltritty]

Yankees - Royals may be the most exciting game of the day.

Costas is so bad in the booth.

Easily. I think this whole series will be great.
