Reds have shown some life thus far but Tanner Roark does not scare me.



Zack should scare them



Who plays 2b and does Alonso hit third.



LGM

I'd be highly surprised if anybody not named "McNeil" is playing second.

Did I just have a stroke, or did a Lou Brock graphic with musical stinger just pop on the screen?

It's been happening since last year. Every time Keef brings up Lou, the booth triggers the graphic.

McNeil should have been breaking there. Lefty pitcher. Shift on Conforto. He should be halfway home at the start of the pitch.

You know what would stop these silly hair-splitting challenges: you get it wrong and you lose your challenge for the next game

Lorenzen didn't Homer, but got down the line and made that a play

That might be over-engineering.



Only allow challenges to be made on the field and immediately, give the umps Bluetooth headsets, and the world is much more in alignment.

Go, Laggy!!!



Votto is so consistently terrific. It's surprising that he's only won one MVP.

Sure. But that play was a virtual and obvious tie at best, so the idea that the game gets stopped, for how ever long it gets stopped, so that the umps can decide a coin flip isn't within a Pete Alonso HR

of what the rule was intended to "correct".

If only this kind of silliness could have been foreseen prior to employing the rule!

Frazier went down looking at a neck-high fastball. That's some weird umping.

I don't know what is going to happen here, but I'm pretty over the moon that McNeil is putting teams in the position of walking him to get to Alonso.

Pete's got to stay a little more within himself in situations like that.

All three ninth-inning dudes came up swinging for the fences at balls out of the strike zone, and taking changeups inside the strikezone. I think I'ma need to talk with Chili.



The Mets should have won this game twice over.

If the defense loses a challenge, the next batter is automatically awarded first base. If the offense loses a challenge, the next batter is automatically out.



Higher stakes. If you lose the challenge, you don't end up back where you're started, but rather, you're doubly screwed.
