I had no doubt he would represent well. I saw the bracket when they put it up and that was the last I saw of it until the very end. I saw Harper hit I think his last two that gave him extra time and he needed either 1 or 2 to win it but I didn't stop to see how it ended. I'm sort of sad that Bregs did well because I think there is actually something to the fear that doing this sends them into the tank for the rest of the season. Could be unfounded but it sort of seems to be the case. I'd rather he not done it and keep mashing in the regulas season.
Aaron Nola was dominating the Red Sox for the first 8 innings. Phillies just lost in the 13th. Only gave up the 1 run because a misjudged fly ball that turned on a triple. Should have won 1-0 for his 13th win.
What's wrong with the Astros bats? Lost 5th in a row. Pitching has been OK other than Keuchel getting hammered in the 11-2 game.
Tuve and Correa on the dl. Fat Tyler White & jd Davis starting. Maldonado just acquired in trade sucks at the dish thus far. Good news they just dumped Giles but added osuna in the pen. Eta - Osuna is serving a 75 game suspension for assaulting a female. Much like astros prospect earlier this season who they released. Verlander and mccullers were outraged and spoke out against it and they are already unhappy with the osuna trade. Here's the video from Vasquez beating his gf after practice. I'd like to smash this guy's face in. Osuna should do wonders for their star chemistry. What's luhnow thinking.
Mets have scored 3 runs in the 9th to close the gap on the Nationals to 25-4. Nats have 26 hits and 25 ribbies.
