From reddit

Gonna have guys scratching their nuts after a K and Angel Hernandez is gonna go out and demand to sniff their fingers? Hell yeah, that's baseball

[Obsidian]

He's not going to sniff their fingers, he's going to make them take their pants off on the field obviously.

Blue jays pitcher just got pulled and hurled in the tunnel out to the dugout lol

[Obsidian]

Tigers pitcher threw up on the mound over the weekend. Must be a new strategy for grip.

[Mertron]

everyone is keeping spider tack in their mouth, it’s the new chewing tobacco

[Melena]

Thank you Yaz for snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.

Thank Christ it was Arizona. Falling behind 7-0 after two innings isn't a good winning strategy

Just saw this one on reddit, good breakdown of the shit pitchers have been using

[Melena]

DeGrom exited after three innings. 8 strikeouts, 0 runs, and another rbi.

Sore shoulder is the reason this time

He's going to throw the greatest 120 IP season of all time.

Giants give up 2 runs in the first, immediately take the lead 3-2. So at least they are not dragging this comeback out.

Also, since 1958, the Giants have hit a total of 6 grand slams in the 8th+ inning while down by 2+ runs. Two of those have been in the last week.

Best option seems to be sunscreen+rosin. Those spray ones go on clear and would be incredibly hard to detect in combination with the rosin bag. Plus your just going to sweat it off in a couple innings.

Arizona lost, making it their 22nd straight road loss. Tied for the longest such streak since 1900

For those who care, Ohtani is pitching tonight, and it's the MLB Youtube Game of the Week. Starts at 9:28pm EST.

[Mertron]

this dude put out a huge holier-than-thou tweet thread yesterday pretty much accusing a lot of mlb teams of cheating in the same manner as the astros, then today we get this

Beautiful. The Castellanos meme is going to be one of those our grandchildren will wind up using.

[Obsidian]

It will never not be funny to me, no matter how often I see it.

And not looking great. Already down 3-0 to the Giants, including giving up a 2 run homer to our backup catcher that was hitting .147 after his home run.
