Things keep looking more and more bleak for Bauer.

Apparently a bunch of his team mates on the Dodgers have all unfollowed him twitter or whatever?

His goose might be cooked.

If his teammates are turning on him that certainly looks bad for the guy at this point.

Daniel Camarena, relief pitcher (called up today to his hometown Padres) , hit a grand slam off of Max Scherzer tonight.

Anything, is possible.

Another game vs the Marlins. Another game Acuna gets hit. He's about ####ing had it too. Another night we likely are told the pitcher didn't mean to do that by that coward Mattingly.

Okay, I have to ask here what's the history with Mattingly?

Sorry but when you crowd the plate like he does, you are gonna get hit by pitches.

He isnt even close to the lead in baseball in that department, so its not like he is getting singled out.

Terry Francona ejected since the Indians don't know how to run bases. My favorite part him telling the third base umpire *you ####ing get out of the game”. Lol

That Acuna knee injury looks bad.

Seeing Acuna sitting on the field tears is horrible. Hope it's not that bad.

Gerrit Cole’s 129 pitch shutout was pretty amazing to watch. He was still throwing 99mph fastballs for the final at bat.

Acuna out for the season with an ACL tear.

RIP Braves

Cole barking at Boone to get the #### off his mound was worth its weight in gold.

Excited to watch the HR derby tonight. Disappointing that Vlad declined to participate, so I'll be pulling for Ohtani exclusively. We could see some bombs this time around with the venue.

I'm still a little bitter that Pete "I'll be irrelevant in 5 years" Alonso stole the win from Vladdy in 2019. Vladdy put on the greatest derby show of all time but was gassed by the final and Alonso eked out a victory and acted like he won the world series. ####ing Mets.

just saw Otani hit one off the third deck in BP...almost out of the stadium



edit - at 54:00 you can hear the crowd gasping... this is the longer version of Chemgear's post above with a view from the catcher's perspective...looked like he wasn't even trying lol

That anthem was terrible.

Also gotta love the flyby that they inexplicably cut away from just as they got to the stadium.

I don't think I've seen a guy as gassed after a HR derby round than Ohtani was.
