New Baseball Season

[lightofmylife]

Dad can't hear or see it on my little netbook, even using his hearing aids

Time to send an email to the Minnesota Twins and complain. I know Dad isn't the only elderly person with this issue

It is a shame you pay for something, and then they want more money to pay for external streaming to see the local team. They always want money and more money. That stinks!

Aaron Judge, first swing of the season, home run to center field. Picking up right where he left off last season.

And our ace Gerrit Cole had 11 strikeouts, setting a new OD record for Yankee pitchers.

The Mets won too thanks to Max Scherzer!

Blue Jays/Cardinals was fun. Back and forth right to the end.

Angels play in Oakland tonight, and Shohei Ohtani will pitch. Counting both his salary, and endorsements, he is projected to earn 63 million this year

Had to look at the box score

MINNESOTA TWINS won, 2-0

In the spring training games, the new pitch clock trimmed an average of 28 minutes off each game. It will be good this year to watch the game played as it was decades ago, with very little time in between pitches.

That gives me 2 hours and 28 minutes of my time back because I’m not watching it anymore. I think they should allow the players and fans to yell swing batter batter swinglike they do in Little League, add more to Wokeball.

You mean we're not supposed to do that?

Are we also not supposed to yell, "I've got it!"

Fans can yell whenever they want, and players often hear the worst from drunk fans.

Shoei pitched an outstanding 6 innings with 10 strikeouts, 2 hits, and no runs allowed, yet the Angels ended up losing 2-1. If the Angels cant put together a winning season this year, Shoei will sign with a better team next season.

Dodgers won!

Yup. Those same drunk fans also make life miserable for security and other fans. And if they interfere, they can change the outcome of a game.

Fun to sit in the bleachers by the bullpens and see the warm-ups and pitching techniques close-up. And most will autograph a ball. It's cool to have both the pitcher and hitter's autograph on a ball, no matter if a foul, hit, or home run.

It takes two teams, there are fans of both sides and sometime individual players, and it's supposed to be good, clean, family fun. Glad they got rid of the cigarette and chewing tobacco ads in the stadiums.

Both my Angels and Dodgers are off to a slow start.

Angels 14-12

Dodgers 13-13

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

The Twins beat KC today 8-6

The Twins are sitting on top of the division with the only winning season so far 16-11 (.563). The second-place Guardians Indians are .500

It’s really something what the Rays are doing. The Pirates also are off to a good start and have surprised a lot of people.

They are definitely off to a fast start, but looking hard at their lineup, they will come back to earth soon enough.

Injuries again raise their ugly heads. Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe is out probably for the season. Not just the Angels though, Mariners Robby Ray is done for the year, that Mets reliever whose name I forgot, maybe others. And, as for Ohtani, I think he'll leave unless Angels go deep into the playoffs. If he does leave, I hope it's to an NL team so we don't have to face him each year. I could see him in San Francisco. Or with the Dodgers.

 

[HisGloryIsPrecious]

The Mets pitching staff is among the walking wounded. The lineup could also be aided by another big bat or two.

 

[Andy C]

The Dodgers longtime ace, Clayton Kershaw is healthy, and off to a great start. He is my favorite player, and a strong Christian.

 

[dseno]

Jays have looked decent so far

I am no longer embarrassed to say I've been a Baltimore Orioles fan since 1965! LOL......

Orioles were my second favorite American League team in the 60s and 70s. Boog Powell, Frank Robinson, Brooks Robinson, Paul Blair, Don Buford, and all their great pirchers.

My paternal grandfather was a lifelong Orioles fan. When they were on tv it didn’t matter if you were a baseball fan or not you were watching the Birds!
