  14. I’m sure glad I couldn’t watch this game. The angrydome roller coaster would’ve literally boiled my blood.

    Nice to see the sub’s/LSB’s/Twitter’s punching bags contribute late

    The players desperately need an off day…

  17. Holy shit, boys. What a game. I thought we were screwed when we gave up those 3 runs in the 8th. Absolutely did not expect that rally in the 9th.

  19. All the josh haters can go to hell. That includes the ones that have been hatin on smith 🤬🤬🤬

  21. “it’s just the same thing as last year…”

    imagine dooming the 2026 Texas Rangers

  22. Definitely thought it was over when Nick Kurtz got that double to put them up 6-5.

    I’ll take the win.

    Also interesting stat of the day – Joc Pederson now has a better batting average than McCutchen this year.
