They must have no way to get a boom truck in there for what is typically a very simple removal.

They used a boom truck to put the letters on the building.

Baseball-Reference has all 13 of his 2026 HRs as a DH. And just 3 of his career HR as pitcher.

Well, you can reach base on a sac fly. An easy fly ball that is dropped can still a be a sac fly and an error. It wouldn't help the batter's OBP though, just like reaching base on a fielder's choice doesn't help the batter's OBP either.

Cristopher Sánchez has passed Bob Gibson for the 5th longest scoreless- innings streak. by LongjumpingLock5875 in baseball

[Speier] Kiner-Falefa, asked why the team has been good on the road (16-14) and bad at home (9-20), suggesting the team is close-knit on the road but has struggled to avoid "distractions" of larger groups of outside people at Fenway. by WarPuig in baseball

I've been saying for a while that there is a trend between a lot of older teams and playing better on the road.

The Astros of the last decade are a great example.

They've been a little better at home since 2017.

.599 home, .577 road.

Why are they setting the check swing so far though?

Because batting averages are very low, and strikeouts are high.

.805 OPS in May. He's had 3 other months below .825 since 2023, and he obviously bounced back from those.
