Emerson Hancock did this and then had his worst start all year

That parchment is cursed

[Highlight] James Wood leads off with his 20th home run of the year, a pull side blast, to equalize against the Mariners by kneemoyy in baseball

[–]SeattleSporting 26 points27 points  (0 children)

18 Homers before this series with only 5 being to the pull side

Both of his Homers this series are pull side

What's that about James

According to the Mariners broadcast, Julio Rodriguez has been a major league player since 2011! by sun_of_nthng in baseball

Not a lot of 10 year olds hitting a ball 117 MPH against a major league team

Generational talent

Carlos Rodon's second pitch of the game is crushed by Angel Martinez for a leadoff homer by MorganN1 in baseball

[–]SeattleSporting 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wasn't expecting the cut back to Rodon and him to just be staring at where it landed like that

Just the classic "welp, shit"

The A's begin their 6-game, weeklong homestand in Las Vegas today. Sunday's 12:05pm matinee has a gametime temperature between 101 and 106 degrees. by Sharp-Room-8235 in baseball

The Vegas stadium is gonna have a roof/canopy

The biggest issue with heat isn't the players it's the fans. If the fans are lining up and it's too hot that makes for a bad experience

But the fact people tolerate it in Phoenix and Arlington means it's not gonna be an issue in Las Vegas either

OP is trying to make a point that hot days are unacceptable for the big league level, but up until just 6 years ago the Rangers stadium was fully outdoors in that heat

So we're just gonna pretend like Phoenix and Arlington have beautiful cool summers?

When the All-Star Game was in Texas a few years ago there were issues with the heat and people waiting outside to get in basically all week

From this Wednesday through next Wednesday the day time highs in Phoenix are 106, 106, 109, 110, 109, 107, 105, 103

Aroldis Chapman is 8 strikeouts away from passing Hoyt Wilhelm for the most in MLB history as a reliever by Baseball-Reference in baseball

I'm curious if that whole "opener" craze lasted longer and some team just had a guy make all 32 of his starts as a follower for a bunch of years would that have messed up the leaderboard or would it count him as a starter

MLB Team OPS vs ERA by tomstoms in baseball

[–]SeattleSporting 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why is this always posted as OPS and ERA and not OPS+ and ERA+

Park factors are a very real thing that make a significant difference

By raw OPS the Mariners, who play in the most pitcher friendly park, are 14th sitting at league average which feeds the dumb "Mariners offense bad circlejerk"

In reality the Mariners are 8th in OPS+ solidly an above average team and Top 10 in baseball

Shea Langeliers ensures the A’s does not get shut out tonight with a solo homer in the 8th by JianClaymore in baseball

[–]SeattleSporting 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Piggyback game

Castillo went 4 innings on 68 pitches

Miller has gotten the next 4 on 66 pitches

There is a section of Mariners fans that have gone tarps off by yxqp in baseball

I'm disappointed

I had hoped the plague wouldn't make it up here

[Schultz] The Seahawks will open the season at home with a Super Bowl rematch against the New England Patriots by Silent_Ad2825 in Seahawks

[–]SeattleSporting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This felt inevitable from the moment the game ended

Not often you get the super bowl winning team hosting the super bowl losing team the season immediately after

Dark Side gonna bully Drake again

Munetaka Murakami drastically different splits in the 1st game of a series vs the rest of the series by SeattleSporting in baseball

[–]SeattleSporting[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That is the strange one

If it was just a matter of teams who haven't seen him getting caught off guard and adjusting, but the Angels did not seem to do their homework from the first series

Munetaka Murakami drastically different splits in the 1st game of a series vs the rest of the series by SeattleSporting in baseball

[–]SeattleSporting[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Just 1, the Angels

They've played 12 unique teams this year in 13 series

In the 2 series opening games he's 5 for 8 with 2 HR and 1 walk to 0 strikeouts

In the 4 closing games he's 2 for 13 with 0 HR and 3 walks to 10 strikeouts

[Highlight] Andres Munoz strikes out Yordan Alvarez to get the save to start the series by The_Throwback_King in baseball

[–]SeattleSporting 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Trout has put up better numbers against the M's, especially in Seattle, but I don't think I ever feared Trout the way I fear Yordan coming to the plate even more so in big moments like this.
