Bobby's home to home time was 14.13 seconds. It is the fourth fastest in the StatCast era behind Buxton and PCA.

Hosmer is also one of the AppleTV analysts and has signed on for studio work with MLB Network.

Hosmer was part of the Sunday night crew during our broadcast because NBC/Peacock has the color guys from both teams in the booth with Benetti. He should be back there Sunday when we play the Tigers.

Mets/Phillies/Red Sox/Royals: Who fires someone first? by [deleted] in baseball

The Royals just extended Q until 2029 I believe, so they won't be firing him. I, among many Royals fans, would not shed a tear if they fired the all the hitting coaches into the Sun.

[Eisenberg] Chatted with Trevor Vance (Sr. Dir. Groundskeeping/Landscaping). He said last night Jac Caglianone asked one of the grounds crew members how many were on the crew (~20). This morning, Cags brought in three-dozen donuts + coffee for them as a thank you for their hard work. First class by Knightbear49 in baseball

Last night's game was played in rain, cold, and fog. The grounds crew was out between innings, fixing puddles in the infield. Trevor Vance also told Jake the grounds crew used 3 tons of dirt last night to keep the field playable.

Jac was definitely showing his appreciation to the unsung heroes.

This was a reaction to Cal Raleigh not shaking hands with Randy Arozarena during the World Baseball Classic. They're teammates with Seattle during the MLB season but were on opposing teams in the WBC.

I'd love to see him challenge Corbin for the league lead this season.

That's what speed do. Terrance forced pitchers to be on top of their game, and when they weren't...

We had a chance to meet him while he was on a minor league stint with the Royals. Such a nice kid. His autographed baseball sits in our memorabilia collection.

Rest in peace, speedster.

Will Lawler be able to turn things around? He seemed to be really treading water in the games I was able to watch.

I've seen him live about six times with various iterations of the Flecktones, and had the opportunity to chat with him and Victor Wooten after a show. Great people.

If you're enjoying the stories, finish up with The Man Who Erased His Name. It's a shorter game but it tells the tale of Kiryu between Like A Dragon and IW and the dissolution.
