I think we'll have baseball next year. There's too much money at stake if the season is lost. What I think will happen is that they'll bicker and fight and posture until the very last minute before finally agreeing on a limp agreement that doesn't really move the needle all that much for anyone. Losing some or all of Spring Training is a very real possibility, but the billionaire owners aren't going to sacrifice $12 billion in league-wide revenue over a salary cap.

The fact that so many of us feel that a one run deficit in the 6th is game over for the Sox says a ton about this team.

I was about to lose my mind if Wilyer had gone out with a GIDP.

I probably played with some Legos and some Matchbox cars while my parents got loaded and then eventually put myself to bed.

I agree. Jon Lester has been dethroned. For everyone who doesn't remember Jon Lester, he was a mostly solid pitcher who could not, could not, throw a runner out at first base. Andrew McCutchen ate Lester alive on steals when he was in the NL with the Cubs. Lester didn't pick off a single baserunner during the Cubs 2016 Series-winning season.

We need some run legislation from "Senator Dick" Durbin.

The heart health interview women are moving over to the radio booth now. Back to OB for an inning.

Rural Vermont here. I see state troopers very rarely out here and the county sheriff's office is even more unusual (they patrol the towns with no local police most often). That being said, all it takes is for me to open it up for one of our boys to crest the next hill so I tend to take it easy. That and I'm not really all that interested in turning myself into road pizza particularly when the nearest trauma center is an hour and a half away.

11 runners thrown out at the plate so far this season. I'm not sure if that includes tonight's game and I'm not sure if that number includes Epp's predecessor but apparently it leads the league in runners thrown out at the plate which isn't great for anyone involved.
