  1. I’m traveling and I’m staying just south of DC tonight in NOVA. I have tried to Google MLB’s blackout policy to try and figure out why the fuck this game is blacked out for me on MLB.TV….Anybody have a clue here?

  2. Felt inevitable, Verlander had already left a few good ones out there.

  3. Just wanna say the dude that made the thread saying hitters should never go oppo is dumb as shit

  4. No one will ever see this since Reddit is broken. But Austin Riley is my father.
