Well it depends who he pinch hit for and who was coming up after the batter he pinch hit for.

 

He pinch hit for Daniel Nava, then Jackie Bradley pinch ran for him. Xander Bogaerts was up next, he has over 100K s and 10 GIDPs. He ended up hitting a sac fly and the Sox won 2-1 so it worked out. But it just seems silly to waste your best hitter knowing he would be walked then you would pinch hit for him. Especially in a NL park, what if the game had gone into extras?

He PH for Nava, and Boegarts was on deck. Still, he wasted Ortiz when there was no chance he was getting pitched to.

Was anyone other than Jackie Bradley Jr available to pinch hit for the pitcher? Given that Bradley is hitting close to .200 they probably would have been happy to go after either Nava or Bradley in that situation with the expectation of it being a free out.

Yankees ban Kate Upton from wearing Tigers' gear at Yankees Stadium.

 

That's just idiotic. Part of the fun of baseball is having rivalries. Taking things a BIT too seriously, there. They should worry more about how they're going to acquire Tulowitzki or Hanley Ramirez.

Well, Elaine Benes did get in trouble for wearing an Orioles cap there.

More Bryce being Bryce.

 

He makes Puig look like a model citizen sometimes.

 

Meh. I'm glad there is a heated rivalry between the two teams. Don't see it much. Even Red Sox/Yankees has gone soft the past few years.

Ya, I like this kind of stuff. Doesn't hurt anybody and you're not supposed to like the team you're in a pennant race with. Works for me.

If they can ban her from wearing certain things, can they ban her from wearing clothes? ;)

Rays' OF Josh Sale has to be running out of chances. Suspended all of last year by the club. Now 50 games by MLB for drug of abuse.

 

In two drafts, the Sox and Rays have drafted players with the same last name. Even with Gordon having not been so hot, the Sox are 2-0 in that battle.

That guy is just star crossed, he has had so many injuries

 

Given how often CarGo gets injured too, maybe there is something in the air up there? :huh
