This two seamer from McLean looks like it teleported.

@jtpenfield Yea, its hard to see from our angle. I think for the off speed pitch his right arm is more tensed up and slightly higher?
English
Only thing I can maybe see is Cruz messes with the ball a little more in his glove with the slider? But it’s hard to tell with the TV copy moving shots a few times
English
1) I watched this back a bunch of times and I don’t see a tip. Rocchio clearly picked up on something subtle.
2) the amount of people saying the Royals need to hit Rocchio next time they play is embarrassing
G-Men Man@GMen_Man
Cruz was absolutely tipping pitches here and Rocchio picked it up. Angel Martinez took advantage. Left arm up, fastball Right arm up, off speed #Guardsball

@jtpenfield He's got the velo, but he needs to develop some secondary stuff. I can see Sweeney getting it out of him, but the clock is ticking on him.

Hand up accountability, I gotta wear that one
Joel Penfield@jtpenfield
Steven Cruz's stuff is really good. Hope he's able to continue to build on his last couple outings

Man I really thought Hunter Brown was an A health grade guy. I suppose he throws hard but otherwise seemed like a clean bill. Only a handful of guys had better health grades preseason.

@Greg_Schaum Coming into today with the bases loaded:
George Brett .319/.335/.448 with 2 HR in 194 PA with a 7% K rate
Bobby Witt Jr. .294/.286/.676 with 4 HR in 42 PA with a 14% K rate
English
I would love to know how many times George Brett struck out looking with the bases juiced …

Oh but when I do it before a softball game, my wife gets upset with me.

Carter Jensen recalls his former roommate Jac Caglianone eating an ENTIRE cake the night before a game they ended up winning 20-1 😂

The second dude (the one on the bottom) just has a terrible take here
It's one thing to have that particular opinion BEFORE watching Challenge ABS. But to maintain it AFTERWARDS?
You are basically saying: ignore the actual evidence of actual fun
The Ringer@ringer
Is ABS a home run for MLB? 🤔

Umpires seem to be in a competition to prove how much they are no longer needed in the game.
Yahoo Sports@YahooSports
Home plate umpire Mark Wegner acknowledged Tuesday he lost track of the count in an at-bat that should've resulted in a strikeout for the Red Sox. "It was actually strike three," Wegner told a pool reporter after the Red Sox lost, 9-2, to the Reds. "Had anybody caught it, we can always go and call replay and check the count. I’ve never done that before. I’m not happy about it. Just made a mistake.”
English
@RyanSublett1 @bradkporter Yep, he already looks like he's appalled that anyone would dare challenge him
English
@bradkporter @maxrieper I think with the addition of ABS you are gonna see some of the bad umpires quietly retire or MLB will forced to address it in ways they haven’t before.

This guy is trying to get fired, right?

CB Bucknor strikes again, this time saying the runner did not touch first base. He very clearly did

Baseball game broadcasts are so unique because one minute the announcers are narrating and commenting on the game and the next minute they are rating hotdogs for the entire inning.

How many baseball writers do you think will apply for this without reading the description?
