Brewers/Nats insanity

Yeah pretty sure I said “are you fucking serious” with different levels of excitement at least 7 times from the 9th on
If that last error led to the Nats tying it for the 3rd time I probably would have cried

Devers had another two doubles and a homer today. He's on pace for 98 XBH--no one's had 100 since 2001, when four guys did it (Bonds, Helton, Sosa, and somebody named Luis Gonzalez). There are still only 15 100-XBH seasons.

I was busy with non-baseball things yesterday and missed Acuña's benching for lack of hustle. I love that Rafael Ortega was the guy who bailed him and Snitker out.

Would be interested to see a side-by-side monthly splits graph of Khris Davis vs. Chris Davis.
― Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Wednesday, 21 August 2019 22:49 (four years ago) link
I think Khris Davis hit more HRs in the first 3 weeks of the season than he has hit in weeks 4-22

looking at the DET-HOU box score and seeing the two lineups' AVG/OBP/SLG next to each other is . . . quite a contrast

What the heck happened to the sinker? It seems in an era of launch angle beasts in the box that the old drop ball would do well. I'm guessing since it is a pitch to contact pitch, it's probably not taught or used as much I suppose.

the pirates are big on the sinker -- and chris archer began throwing one when he arrived in pittsburgh, even as charlie morton and gerrit cole stopped throwing theirs when they left -- which should tell you all you need to know
