Autumn Dreamin

Andrew Vaughn with 50RBI before the end of June.

Rare misplay from Mike "American Luis Robert" Trout.

He heard you.

Love me some hot DP action

Based on the calls to Remi and TA, it would have just been a strikeout looking instead of swinging. Not a ton you can do if the ump is giving him those pitches.

Really heads up defense by Remi this inning.

Well...he didn't let Trout and Ohtani beat him, at least?

During the game I mentioned that LRJ's homer reminded me of one he hit last year to about the same spot. I took a look at the box score for that game exactly a year ago, and it's actually uncanny. Other similarities between these two games besides the twin HRs: The White Sox win in Anaheim on June 28th, scoring 11 runs on 17 hits and 4 walks. Barria and Loup pitched for the Angels. Multi-hit, multi-RBI game for Seby. 3 hits for the Sox starting 1B. Sox 2 hitter went 0-5 with a BB and run scored. The Sox SP gave up two solo shots in a 3 batter span. Only one GIDP in the game, both hit into by TA. I could go on, but once I noticed the first thing, I started to worry that I entered some kind of time loop ?

Not sure I thought it was possible to not give up runs in Charlotte over that much time, honestly.

Funnily enough, he's tied with the LRJ homer for the hardest hit ball of the game, 109.6mph .680 xBA liner that found a glove.

I don't like the team or the player, but German is 3 outs away vs. Oakland.

People think Seby catches Gio to improve the pitching performance, but in reality he catches Gio to improve his own performance ? His 2 HR game in NY was with Gio on the bump, too. He just likes showing support for his best friend.

Yankees got something cooking through 6 in Oakland, FYI

Bham showed out on offense tonight, winning 17-4. Some notables: Mieses: 6-6, 3HR, 2B Tatum: 2-4, BB, SB Ramos: 2-5, BB Hackenberg: 3-4, 3R

Over 50% (7/13) of his career homers are in <2% (3/151) of his career games. If he hits one, 33% (3/9) of time time he's hitting another.

Noted power hitters LRJ and *checks notes* Seby Zavala are tied for the team lead in multi HR games this season with 2 each. Burger has 1.

I was so tempted to bet on Seby to hit another HR since he loves to hit them in bunches....

That shot reminded me one of my favorite LRJ homers from last year, also hit in this park:

Tatum with a single and a steal of 2B in his first Barons AB, naturally.

I'm not sure what the Marlins even do with Cueto at this point?

Things we like to see:

We all agree that it would be very on brand for this team to randomly light up Shohei after struggling offensively all month, right?
