He doesn't get cheated on his cut. He swings at every ball like that...just attacks the pitch, swinging hard just in case he makes contact.

The guy is a beast who obviously can play in the big moment. (Seager's at bat in the 9th was no less heroic.)

Garcia has more plate discipline, but he reminds me of Puckett in the way he attacks the ball. There's no subtlety in his swing.

This has been a very entertaining series so far. You never know when one of the teams is going to go off.

Rangers star RF Adolis Garcia leaves game 3 in the 8th inning grabbing his side after an aggressive swing.

Hopefully not an oblique injury. Would likely be the end of his series if it is.

Apparently it’s stupid shirt night for the group behind home plate.  A couple guys with soccer scarves, a couple guys in fake bro muscle shirts, and a hawkeyes shirt. ?

The hawkeye shirt certainly explains the the D'backs offensive collapse.

ARI getting SPANKED. 10-0 in the 3rd, back to back 5 run innings, all runs scored with 2 outs. Man oh man.

yeesh.  Guess I’m glad I’m watching hockey. 
although because I’ve decided I was rooting for AZ, the rangers will win now.

Gem of a game so far. ARI is just crapping the bed with RISP, and ARI's pitcher is not letting anything happen for TEX.

ARI going 0-9 w/RISP so FAR is killing them. TEX is prob gonna hang a crooked number on ARI this inning.

Looks like they started that last year.  It seems to me that the whole Utility player thing is relatively new in the larger picture.  Yeah, there's always been some players that would bounce around positions to fill in, but I don't remember there being one (or more) players on basically every roster that play solidly over 100 games, but spread across many positions, so it kind of makes sense in the modern game.

B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?

I’m a very old school, get off my lawn type when it comes to baseball, but I don’t really have a problem with adding a utility award.

$86K per AB, $432K per game. I have one question...

Can I pinch-hit once or twice for you, Mr Ohtani?

Could there be a Sano rebirth? Losing the weight seems like a good first start.

It appears Sano is a guy who thinks once you make the majors, you sit back and stop improving your game.  I’m glad he cut some weight and wish him all the best.  Maybe once he gets, “a hat for bat”, that missing the curve ball will be a distant nightmare?

The A’s ownership might be the worst ever in sports.

Taking a breather from mowing and turned on Blue Jays - Orioles game and see a Blue Jay batter charged with a strike for a pitch clock violation. I didn’t know that was a thing.

All day my Twitter timeline was filled with Bill Walton tributes (rightfully so, Bill Walton was an incredible person) and then Angel Hernandez announced he was retiring and all of a sudden the Walton tributes faded away and everyone was celebrating Hernandez retiring.

Pretty impressive that he was so freaking bad at his job that his retirement overtook Bill Walton stories.

And, that it's fans of every team out there celebrating his departure, as opposed to Bill Walton, it's fans of every team mourning the loss of one of the greats.
