Petco is at or near the top of a lot of stadium lists, but this is the first time I’ve seen the foul pole mentioned. I hope you tried the bbq tri-tip nachos.

It's the little things that count.
Had a Pacifico and a soft-serve ice cream in the Padres helmet cup.
Missed the bbq tri-tip nachos!

Ohtani getting rolling. 4 for 4 today with 2 bombs. Now hitting .364 with 10 HR's.

Astros pitcher Ronel Blanco ejected after foreign substance check early in win over A's

Ronel Blanco, who threw a no-hitter earlier this year, is now likely facing a 10-game suspension.

My Rangers are in a bad skid right now. All the injuries don't help, but every team has them, so that can't be the only reason they're scuffling.

Yikes.

Yikes.

Castro has played well for the Twins but he’s had a rough week in center. With Buxton out, it’s either Willi or Martin and both are not CFers.

I absolutely love the Phillies Maroon and light blue unis. Reminds me of the Mike Schmidt, Tug McGraw, Steve Carlton, Bake McBride, Garry Maddox, Rose, Luzinski, Bowa, Boone, Trillo 1980s team of my youth. They were my favorite NL team (for you young-uns, the Brewers were members of the AL East in that era of baseball).

Thought Rosario was back for a minute.

Makes you wish the Twins would have resigned Taylor‘s gold glove.

This is just sort of odd how the Twins seem to fold versus the Yanks every year. Granted the Yanks are playing great even without Cole but still hard to think these should be the records over a period of 20 years. Not like the Yanks have been the best team in baseball or Twins the worst.

Yikes.

We were at the game. Later, Castro took a step in, froze, and had an Aaron Judge light speed third double of the game land behind him at the fence.

A Judge, first inning home run, went into the third level of left field, 467',...it looked like a magnificent 6 iron in the air

A Judge joined B Ruth, L Gehrig, a J DiMaggio as the only NYY with 4 XB hits in one game. Pretty elite company.

A Judge second double,...

Also interesting how this chart shows only the regular-season performance when the real deal is the absolute futility of the Twins vs the Yankees in the postseason (2-16 all time, lost the last 13 straight by an average score of 6.4-3).

The Twins haven’t won a postseason game - not a series, a game - against the Yankees in 20 years.
