Greinke stud. This is old school. It's what Rocco should have done with Berrios. Pulling him with 70-some pitches? Really lame. Greinke is the new Jack Morris.

Remember that no-spitting rule for this season? We have players, coaches and managers wearing masks in the dugout that lift their mask for the sole-purpose of spitting. Penalties?

Greinke kinda unloaded some frustration on his past handling by the Astros, after the game
Seems like a cranky old man

Been chuckling about this for awhile

Fan uses megaphone to heckle Astros from outside Petco Park, calls each one a cheater by name

Once upon a time, the Houston Astros were on track to face some of the most hostile crowds in baseball history.
The team’s cheating during its 2017 World Series season was exposed during the offseason, and fans made no attempt to hide their disgust toward a group that has readily embraced heel status. And then the coronavirus pandemic forced baseball into empty stadiums for nearly the entirety of the 2020 season.
The Astros are now playing in the ALCS, and still have not played in front of a single paying spectator this season, outside of a boo-heavy spring training. One fan still found a way to make his voice heard during the series.
During Game 4 of the ALCS, a man could be heard heckling the Astros from outside Petco Park. After saying the baseball community had not forgotten the team’s sins, he proceeded to call out every Astro by name and shame them as a cheater:
Without access to stadiums during games, fans have been forced to get creative to make sure the Astros know how much they dislike them. Banners have been flown through the sky, fans have greeted the team bus with jeers and one Oakland Athletics fan even managed to get a cardboard cutout of the Astros mascot in a trash can at his team’s stadium.
This isn’t the first time a megaphone has been used outside an Astros game:
You can only wonder just how loud the jeering will get once fans are allowed to fill stadiums again.

Nice

Continue into 2021, or whenever fans are back at games.

Please.

One of the Twins Daily writers

Carlos Correa is something else right now.

He hasn’t apologized for anything.

He doesn’t give a damn about anyone’s feelings.

He’s backing it up on the field every day.

The wind is clearly uncomfortably strong. Why not close the roof? Do the Braves as the home team make the call on that decision?

Kershaw comes up small

Again

Atlanta has the driver's seat, passenger seat and most of the back seat right now.

Correa/Asterisks won't go away.

And of course now Correia is a hero, because he called his shot
Does anyone bat in extra innings and NOT think they will walk it off?

He's a legend in his own mind.

Gladden has mentioned in several games over the years I have heard.

Swings get wilder in extras, players trying to be the hero.

It's almost like people would prefer Correia quit trying? I love that he's bringing it on with it all on the line. Warrior!

Nope

Be a little humble

Be a little regretful over cheating

Hasn't
Doesn't get that what they did was wrong, and somehow they're victims this year.

Is that where you are as well?

Help the Twins figure out a cheating scam, as long as they apologize after, you should be good.
