Saw the stat tonight that Jacob deGrom has allowed 2 ER or less in 150 of his 205 career regular-season starts.

Holy cow Angel Hernandez is far and away the worst umpire I've ever seen.

Honestly, my ‘hopes and dreams’ are totally unconnected from baseball.

I wonder if Notre Dame will be doing the same.
0-2 to start the season; loss to Marshall at home made everyone wonder whether Marshall is that good or ND coach is …
My only dismay is ten minutes of ND talk every evening in the news program.

Wild 9th inning at the Barves-Mariners game today. Seattle was up 6-2 and had Atlanta down to their final strike a couple of times, but the Barves wound up scoring 5 runs on a pair of HR's to take a 7-6 lead. In the bottom of the inning, Julio Rodriguez hits a homer to tie the game, then with 2 outs Eugenio Suarez knocks it out of the park to win the game. Good day for Mets fans.

As long as the Red Sox beat the Yankees each time they meet, it will be a good season.

Sox might want to rethink how they're pitching to Judge.

Cubs really taking it to my Mets, bunting for base hits and stealing bases.

I don't know if it matters that much, he's on a roll this year.

EDIT: Well, there’s always tonight’s game for another chance. I can’t blame the 10th inning pitcher ,for giving up some runs when the offense wasn’t able to perform well enough in 9 innings, too many runners stranded in scoring position.

Seems likely that Judge will be the first "clean" player to pass Maris. He has really been on a tear.

My Reds are long out of it. I am following with interest Pujol's last season. I hope he gets to 700 home runs. Once again, he has been a solid player for 20 plus years and still adds something to his club, even now in his last season.

Watching several critical fielding errors give up runs and cause my team to lose, knowing that my team DFA'd possibly the best fielder in the league, for no gain in offense, makes me regret staying up late.

The Cubs are more than 20 games under .500, they went to New York and swept the NL East leading Mets.

Yup, definitely humiliating
