The 50/50 chase may be off, but after tonight’s triple, the 50/10 is in sight. Only Babe and Mays have bagged that one. (Not sure if this has been called out before…)

That would also be an awesome accomplishment!

Eh, CB didn’t swing the Angels’ bats. The Halos showed up to play.

I was talking about Ohtani's plate appearances, especially in the 1st and his last at-bat.

Haha oh. Yeah, strange strike zone for sure. "Clearly a Ball" Bucknor.

Hey, if he keeps with his recent HR pace, 60/10 is within reach.

Next year is going to be amazing when he's challenged 10 times in the 1st inning and shown to be wrong every time. In fact I wonder if he'll retire after this season.

Guys like Buckner and in the past Joe West and Angel Hernandez thrive on being difficult and contrarian. They are the guys that show up in a professional business environment wearing a bow tie.

Frankly I’m surprised more here don’t defend them since they have the same personality types as some of the regular posters on this forum.

And yes they should be fired. They are not “colorful” and they horribly detract from the game. Nothing cute or interesting about them. They are bad at their jobs and need the boot.
