Idk how he caught jps. Just his night. Gotta tip your cap. Emerson again absolute gem. Still no walks and tons of strikeouts.
I agree. 3 HR and we pressed with runners on several times. Hancock was good again and the BP followed. We are 4-5 but Geez, if Julio and Cal were hitting?

The team is good. But they need to be healthy and lucky to get to where we want them to be.

The biggest thing I notice about Cal and Julio is that they pull their head off the ball like a golfer overswinging. Just too in love with the dinger imo.

I often ask how can I possibly be so cursed to be an M's fan. What possible atrocities did I commit against man and beast in my past life to deserve this fate? And then last night happens. A borderline impossible feat by our opponent likely unprecedented in the history of baseball to lose 1-0.

Maybe the lesson is that if you're going to swing for the fences then make sure it clears them by more than a couple feet (or inches).

Somebody replied that I must have been Hitler in my past life. I retorted, even Hitler doesn't deserve this fate.....

Shut out in 41 out of their last 46 innings. Truly remarkable...
