Give us a report when you get back, please!?

Interesting...this is what I found out:

Batted ball that strikes either of the lower two catwalks (known as the 'C-Ring' and the 'D-Ring'), including any lights or suspended objects attached to either of those catwalks as well as any angled support rods that connect the 'C-Ring' to the masts that support the 'D-Ring' in fair territory: Home Run.


If it goes straight up, it could be an out if caught. Pop fly ball. It has certain perimeters it has to make to be a home run.

I think the Braves are depressed. So many of their star players are on the IL. They can't get a run to save their lives, except for Marcell Ozuna, and you can't win a baseball game with only one productive batter.

Have you all seen the Capital One commercial with the "Peaches" (actors) playing a scene from A League of their Own? "There's no crying in baseball!" Apparently there's no crying over credit cards either - oh wait, that's an oxymoron.

I’m still cheering for the Baltimore Orioles this year, but watching another baseball club from Arizona — The Diamondbacks….

The Diamondbacks are a good team. The Braves lost to them at least once last year, and probably more, if I recall correctly.

I'm still following the Braves. Our victory against the Phillies last night was swee-ee-ee-t! considering how much we lost to them last year, and what a hard time we've had getting started this year against the Padres and the Dodgers.

Ssssssssssss !

The Braves finally won a game tonight. I almost couldn't believe it until the very end, they've been doing so badly lately.

My Arizona Diamondbacks are hanging in there. Ketel Marte, Eugenio Suarez, and Corbin Carrol, Perdomo, Naylor, along with all the other guys in the club and the pitching bullpen are working hard as a team and spoiling their fans with awesome plays (answer backs, lol). Right now I hope my boys sweep the Chicago White Sox. Fingers crossed 🤞


GOOOOOO DIAMONDBACKS!! SsssSSSsssssSss !!

Last night’s game against the Chicago White Sox:

Looks like my Eugenio Suarez was a Mariner and is now again a Mariner. They borrowed a couple of my Diamondbacks to pull off a super hawt post season game advantage as they sail toward winning a pennant this year.

Gooooo Mariners, Tridents 🔱 UP!!

I definitely think the Brewers will make it to the World Series. I have given up on the Braves, although they seem to have come back from the slump they were in for the beginning of this year. I hope they can at least fight back to 500 by the end of the season.
