Bo is hitting like he was in his best seasons right now. Is there anyone in the game better at spoiling pitches and prolonging an at-bat?

Another example of Heinamen failing on fundamentals. Happens way too much for a back-up catcher. He doesn't have to hit or anything, just do the basics properly. Frame catches properly and make the plays that are there.

His AB in the top of the 4th was terrible. 1 pitch. Take some pitches. Let your pitcher get a little bit of rest.

I get the sentiment. But he has a .900OPS through 150ish PA's. So he's outperforming in a lot of other ways. If anything it's an indictment to how spoiled we are with Kirk, and to a similar extent Jansen, behind the plate the last couple of years.

God Damn. This is how the greats get you. You think you catch them on an off night but then they'll dial it in and cruise. I thought it would be a struggle for Skenes to get through 5. Now he'll likely get through 7 no problem.

Uh oh. Vlad pulled from the game...

There's no way this is 4k on sporsnet tonight, right? This is way worse than a typical home game 4k broadcast.

Nice work, Little. Why bother losing a run in a tie game through balls and strikes when you can just wild pitch the run in.

Hahaha, what an absolute clown show appearance by Little tonight. Just throws to first to hold the runner and misses by a mile, sending him to second then proceeds to 4 - 0 walk the batter.

Is it normal to express ERA in scientific notation? Asking for a friend. . .

Tommy Pham is still the biggest clown in the game.
