Send us a text

Mike Trout hit his 400th home run. Remember when he was the best player in #MLB? We started the show talking about Ep. 628 where we talked with author Jane Leavy about her new book - Make Me Commissioner - I know what's wrong with baseball and how to fix it! Jane has some eye-opening comments and ideas so give it a listen or watch! 

There are now 3 players with 50 home runs this season - Cal Raleigh, Shohei Ohtani and Kyle Schwarber. #Yankees Aaron Judge is on the doorstep of 50 and Eugenio Suarez is within three. There have been four players with 50 home runs (1998 and 2001) but never five!  Trea Turner is hitting .305 and if he doesn't play again this regular season will be the NL batting champ. Might be the only .300 hitter in the NL! Aaron Judge leads AL by a good margin

#Tigers are choking and the #Guardians are charging. #Mariners & #Astros are finished their three game series on Sunday night w Seattle holding a two -game advantage in the #ALWest.  #Bluejays clinched a playoff spot and seem to be in the driver's seat to win the #ALEast. #Redsox are fading a little and may be on the outside looking in but there's still a week of games to play! 

#Brewers also clinched and the #Cubs seem in good shape. #Mets #Reds are tied for the last NL wild card spot w #Padres in pretty good shape for the second WC. 

#Dodgers still maintaining their #NLWest lead and look primed for the #MLB playoffs. Watch out for them!
