Needs to work on his bat flip IMO. Karma and etiquette be dammed.

The bottom of the lineup doesn’t look super pretty on paper but they’ve come up big over the past few games.

Just noticed but when did Romano stop the waiting twitch? Happy he’s done with that rocking nonsense.

Not sure if because of the radio simulcast Rogers cheaps out and does, or just because Buck, but Buck's home run call is far too long and drawn out in the build up, when everyone knew it was gone within 2 seconds of contact.

Those are the moments that Springer was brought in for, good to see him deliver.

What a game! What a series! What a homestand! Incredible stuff.

Springer might have earned his contract on that bomb alone lol.

Huge, HUGE win. Team is on a roll. They rightly could have even swept this series.

I think all the pieces are starting to come together. Let's see if they can keep this up through the end of September. Hopefully they earn a playoff spot.

I think everyone agreed that they needed at least to go 8-3, but in reality, 9-2 to get themselves fully into the race.

Well, you're in the race now boys!

I’ve noticed this too. Must be because he’s at home? Some huge moments with below average calls.

My guess is because he’s calling it from home that he doesn’t have the same angle as he does when he’s in the ballpark. He’s had a few cases this season where he went into his home run call when it stayed in the field. He probably doesn’t want to embarrass himself too much.
