More homers in August than the entire Pirates team...with the gap widening daily.

I hate my life.

They are desperate....bring in Chapman to start the 8th, on the road...down 1?

Chapman's velocity is down slightly (101.1 to 100.0) and his spin rate is down a good bit. His slider therefore isn't as hard/sharp and he now doesn't look much different than several other bullpen guys around the league.

He has always been to obvious on what pitch is coming.

Rich Hill had a perfect game ruined in the 9th by an error and then lost both the no hitter and game in the 10th on a leadoff walk-off homer by Josh Harrison.

I feel mildly dirty celebrating that win, but let's face it -- when your team is having a "goin' nowhere" sort of season, ruining someone else's joy sometimes is all you have!

It was an epic game; first time in baseball history that a no-hitter was broken up by a walk-off homer.

Regardless of what he said after the game, you know Hill had to be seething. Against Williams in eight innings, they got 7 hits, 4 walks and 1 HBP and couldn't get anyone across, he lost his perfect game on a ninth-inning error and then lost the no-hitter and game on the first batter in the 10th after being completely dominant through 9.

Ridiculous game between Detroit and NY. Gary Sanchez going to get a decent suspension sucker punching two players.

Look, just because Miggy was drunk on the field and got belligerent doesn't mean he still has a problem!!!
