It’s time to bring it to the MLB!!!
In AAA they get like 4 challenges a game per team? I think I read the average # of missed calls was like 14. I'd rather have the robots

Hitters shouldn't have to swing at balls because a bad umpire can't call the strike zone by the rules of the game. I mean, why have rules then?

I hate the extra inning ghost runner and I hate the 2 throw overs to first only. I like the pitch clock, but I do think there are situations when a pitcher needs a little more time. I also like the batters having to be quicker in the batters box and ready.

It was reported that Boone was out applying for a new job. I wish him all the best.

Some Tanaka autos seem to be coming down in price the further he gets from pitching in the majors. I added this one to my collection today. I have 1,366 Tanaka cards, but this is just my second auto.

Geez 10 of the first 12 outs were strikeouts, so much for offense this game.

Glad that Schmidt got out of that mini jam. 5 Ks in 2 innings.

Pretty sad when Chicago goes from disco demolition night in the 1970’s to yacht rock night in 2023 and I actually like yacht rock.
