Welp. That escalated quickly.

Here I thought they were gonna struggle to plate some runs, have issues with the travel and.... Nope.

[BelmontShore]

Ok, people, I have an excuse.

This is the best team in baseball and no one is around to comment?

[Christopher]

Crossing Marte off my list of potential platoon OF trade targets. Maybe he can hit a little, but he needs to catch medium-routine fly balls.

[Christopher]

A couple more hits like that HR, and Merrifield will survive through to the postseason roster. #MixedBlessing?

[Christopher]

Great job by Suarez to keep that from escalating. Closing in on his 10th win.

[BelmontShore]

Boom.

Castellanos.

[BelmontShore]

European air kept that ball fair, obviously.

[BelmontShore]

7-2, Phils.

[Christopher]

Happy 35th anniversary today of the Steve Jeltz 2-home run game in the come-from-behind win over the Pirates.
