Early O.D. games underway Braves 3 - Nats 1 in the 3rd Collect your winnings if you had Dom Smith scoring the first Nats run of the season. Yanx 1 - Giants 0 in the 3rd on an Aaron Judge 1st inning HR

deGrom struck out 7 in 3.2 innings (hey that's good) but gave up but gave up 5 ER on 6 hits (they that's shit). He exits his first start with a 12.27 ERA.

Inauspicious to say the least

Roger Clemens is part of the ESPN booth?!? Not sure if this is a permanent gig or just a trial outing but right now he's the third man with Karl Ravich and Eduardo Perez. ChiSox & Astros are scoreless in the 7th but Houston threatening.

Overall a good opening day, other than the Braves Dodgers and Yankees winning.

=ESPN about a week ago]ESPN today announced that seven-time Cy Young Award-winner Roger Clemens will join its exclusive, national broadcast as a special guest game analyst on Opening Night when the reigning World Series Champion Houston Astros host the Chicago White Sox. Clemens, a Houston native and former Astros star, will join Karl Ravech, analyst Eduardo Perez and reporter Buster Olney to call the game on Thursday, March 30, starting at 7 p.m. ET. It will be exclusively available on ESPN and the ESPN App. Clemens, widely regarded as one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history, has made several guest appearances as part of ESPN's MLB coverage in the past year. “The Rocket” made three appearances on ESPN's KayRod Cast – its alternative presentation of Sunday Night Baseball – and most recently appeared during an ESPN spring training game broadcast. Mark Gross, ESPN senior vice president, production and remote events: “We've enjoyed working with Roger during his impressive KayRod Cast appearances and can't wait for him to join our Opening Night broadcast team as special guest game analyst. The insights Roger has gained from his storied career, including his ties to Houston, will help inform the audience as the Astros begin their title defense and the sport begins a new era of gameplay.” Clemens is a two-time World Series Champion and former ace of the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, New York Yankees and aforementioned Astros. David Cone, regular Sunday Night Baseball analyst and boothmate of Ravech and Perez, will be calling the New York Yankees opening day game locally. Cone will rejoin Ravech, Perez and Olney on April 2 as the 34th season of ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball commences with the Philadelphia Phillies at Texas Rangers game, starting at 7 p.m.

I'm more concerned that MLB has this wonderful, marketable, global talent, with this uniquely dominant combination of skills, and they've rigged the rules to make it far more unlikely that any such player should ever rise again. That's even pissier, according to my piss-math.

Yanx load the bases in the 9th down by two ... and Stanton GiDPs Yanquis lose, THAAAAAA Yanquis lose. Oh they tried begging for replay overturns of the outs both at 2nd and 1st but if either were flipped every ump involved in the decision deserved to immediately lose their job and their pension.

Frayed Knot Apr 01 2023 05:34 PM Re: TWiB Notes - March 30 - April 2

Bottom 9, Sawx down by one in Fenway, two outs, none on, Japanese newcomer Yoshida hits a routine fly to Oriole LF Ryan McKenna and the game is ov ... nope, he drops the ball!! Up comes Adam Duvall: Walk-Off 2R HR !!!

MFY rookie Anthony Volpe's first major league hit was a multi-hop ground ball that just got under the glove of the shortstop. He's trying to remind their fans of Derek Jeter. Later
