As a general rule, I agree. But Dolly was genuinely loved by the vast majority of the people. She is a true American icon and more deserving than many politicians who were afforded the same honor upon their death. Her loss is America’s loss.

This falls under that category. When someone needed help, she couldn’t care less their political leanings. There will never be another like her.

It was still a terrible pitch to throw to Shohei in that spot.
Oh, clearly. But it was a ball that most MLB outfielders catch. And Iggy pitching through it makes up for the mistake.

Although it was hit deep, Iggy should have had three up, three down. Generous not to have been charged with a three base error

Our youngest is a junior this year. Went to Western Kentucky his first 2 years. It was about 1.5 hours away and he was home practically every weekend, except when he went to Knoxville to see his buddies who have a place on the north end of campus.
But this year feels different. One of the guys in the 6 bedroom apartment graduated. He took the spot and lives with 5 of his high school buddies. He’s 3+ hours away now. Moved in 2 weeks ago and probably won’t be home until the weekend after Labor Day and then again at fall break. Hits a bit differently now.

Meanwhile, Phillies playing like a team that understands the game. Blowing out the Cards.

And watching Contreras go 4-4, knowing AA thought .110 hitting Murphy was a better fit just pisses me off to no end.

I know it’s a long season, but in a big spot at the end of the game, WTF is Acuna doing smiling and joking with Contreras for? You need to be ultra focused there. It’s like Ronald was taking a third inning spring training AB with that mindset.

I don’t think Weiss is going to let him finish if he still has a shot at it. 80 pitches and he had a bit of a tough sixth inning.
A big inning here would help the decision making.

Riley having a good day. Even on his strikeout, he took the pitcher 9 pitches.

When the Pirates left town the first weekend in June, we were 45-21. We’ve gone 29-32 since. Yet AA saw no need to address the glaring issues in any serious manner at the deadline.

Holy shite. That pitch was way out and Riley has no confidence to challenge.

This team needed a major shakeup trade last offseason, but they ran it back. Now I think the entire core needs to be blown up. This team is old, slow, and entirely dependent on home runs yet again. The World Series window with this group has slammed shut.
I completely agree.

Bradley is the best of the guys they’ve started. Gets a lot of swing and miss and his ERA was sub 4 starting this game. I’m a little biased since he’s the 4th starter on my fantasy league behind Skubal, Schlittler and Burns.
