Hear me out. In the 14th, only Kerry Carpenter & Josh Naylor are allowed to hit. If they get on, they’re replaced by pinch runners.

More strike zone bullshit in Seattle. Cannot wait for the ABS system to be in effect next year. And I’m rooting for the Mariners!

If Clayton Kershaw gets to shake his homophobic hand with Trump again in the White House, I might spontaneously combust. Go every other team.
