Minor is pretty lucky this game is still only 2-0. That Semien shot looked like a home run off the bat, probably is with 2019 baseballs.

Boy, Matz looks like the ultimate reclamation project. He's pitching like the ace of a staff in his own right at the moment.

Ha. I am game for some day drinking with the double header and all. But that might be a bit much. I really like simple Pat. He’s just so simple.

I loved his explanation for not wanting to change the distance of the mound, "because that's the way it's always been".

Good ol Tabby.

I should add that I still appreciate an "old school" perspective from guys like Tabler who played the game. The cold white collar analytics side of the game that has basically taken over baseball is not fun.

Of course it's a pathetic BABIP blooper from the 9 hitter that breaks up the no hitter. The royals are effing pathetic

Great execution there for the insurance run. Kauffman field is where fly balls go to die. Jays would have 3 or 4 more at most other stadiums.

Beautiful run there.

Lead off single
Steal 2nd
Deep fly gets him to 3rd
Deep fly scores him

Speed is awesome
