2024 MLB Season (4 Viewers)

[MartinP.]

In the Dodgers win over Arizona last night, the Dodgers had zero strikeouts. First time for them since 2006. According to an article I read today, since 2017 there has only been 5 teams since 2017 with no strikeouts in a game and the other 4 were last year. They didn't say who those teams were, though.

I finished watching the yogi Berra documentary “it ain’t over till it’s Over” last night. Very good!

Reading Hank Aaron’s book “I Had A Hammer”. About halfway through it.

I hope the Mets can get back on the winning track tonight.

I hate bees. Used to swell up something awful, when I got stung. Hurt like Hell, too.

Trout injured his knee during Monday’s win vs the Phils, and will have surgery to repair the damage. He is expected to return this season, but will be on the sidelines for an extended period of time.

Bees are divas, especially the Queen.

It wasn't the best if you sat down with your dinner (which included Bumble Bee Tuna, no less) to watch the game and then see the notice "Dodgers game is being delayed due to bee colony" which is amusing at first, but then takes two hours beefore the game starts. Then the Dodgers, after not striking out at all last night, manage three runs -- the first by a passed ball, the second by a balk and the third by a sacrifice fly, and then get stung, in extra innings, to a walk off home run, the second of the night by Christian Walker. I couldn't bee-lieve it.

I read a piece of an article about the Rockies making history last night, and definitely not in a good way. They had a 5 run lead after 8 vs the lowly Marlins, then went on to lose. This means that they’re the first team in the modern era (since 1900) to trail in every one of their first 29 games of a season. Just wow.

Update- make that their first 30 games. Marlins up 2-1 in the 6th.

Quite the end to the Cubs / Mets game:

Pete Alonso thrown out at plate on controversial call to end game as Mets fall to Cubs, 1-0

The Mets were stifled by Shota Imanaga and jobbed by an apparent botched call in the ninth inning as they lost to the Chicago Cubs, 1-0, on Wednesday night at Citi Field.

Carlos Mendoza enraged over ‘BS’ at home plate to end Mets-Cubs: ‘Think they got the wrong call’

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza ran onto the field to argue the decision and could be heard saying the catcher was illegally blocking the plate and the call was "BS." After the game, Mendoza made it clear he thinks "they got the wrong call."

Mets give it back to them today. Exciting finish!

Man, he just can't stay healthy (enough) to play even 120 games anymore... and dem Angels won't even have Ohtani this time...

They signed Pillar. Its an opportunity for him to play.

Exciting game at Dodger stadium last night with the Braves; 4-3 in 11 innings! (A run for each team in the 10th!) And much of it was because of the Dodgers rookies, pitcher Gavin Stone and outfielder Andy Pages, not the high-priced boys.

Holy Crap!

Mets swept by the Rays. I feel like I’m bad luck when I watch them!

I think it was last weekend that the Rays lost 3 straight to the lousy White Sox. That’s baseball.

Agreed. The dodgers swept the Braves too.

Phillies are hot

Trea Turner's out. Maybe six weeks.

Phillies, Mets, Rays and now...Detroit has unveiled their City Connect uniforms to debut on Friday.
All of them this year are looking like versions of the same thing. Dark with a side of some shade of blue.

No wonder the players never smile in any of the unveiling photos, either, I've noticed.
They should have embraced Motown more than the auto industry.

The front part of the jersey resembles tire tracks. Racing stripe on the sleeves.
In the top photo, if you notice the white stripe on the cap...that's a VIN number.

Well, we'll see what the Guardians come up with next week. Maybe they'll connect with their Indian heritage.
