It's a good thing that the Mets was able to win tonight in extra innings because if not I am not sure that umpire would have made it out of there alive after saying that he "overturned" a safe on replay only to realize that he told people he was safe instead of out.

The Mets have also now painted a single seat in the bleachers purple and saying it's Grimace's seat. 

I'm not saying I want them all to drink Grimace Shakes... but I'm not not saying that either.

Juan Soto hit a HR last night. It represented...

- 40th HR of the season

- 200th HR of his career

- Since it was in Seattle, he has now homered in all 30 parks

Soto and Judge become the 3rd set of Yankee teammates to hit 40 HRs in a season (Ruth/Gehrig 3x), (Maris/Mantle)

The Orioles finally got tired of Craig Kimbrel not getting anyone out and have DFAed him

Kimbrel's time has been frustrating.  There was a time where he was good enough to close games even if some were a bit close for comfort.  Then when he struggled with that they put him in regular bullpen to mixed results.  I was hoping he would have improved as time went on but ultimately this is the right call.

I'm also worried about the slump they're in in September of all months.  They're sitting in the wild card spot which is not ideal but doable yet they're losing to teams that they shouldn't be losing to (I'm still not over that White Sox loss)  They need to pick up momentum in a hurry otherwise they'll have a quick exit in the playoffs.

This just in: Shohei Ohtani has become the charter member of the 50/50 club.

 

His stat line today: 5 H, 2 doubles, a single, 2 SB, 2 HR, 7 RBI. Or about a week's worth of production from the Chicago White Sox.

 

Edit: MAKE THAT SIX FOR FUCKING SIX, 3 HR, 10 RBI. Setting the Dodgers single season HR record. In their postseason clincher.

 

What the actual cinnamon toast FUCK.

Marlins Manager deciding not to walk him with first base open:

 

At this point, we just might as well channel Teddy KGB: 

 

"He beats me. Straight up. Pay him. Pay that man his money."

He is the first player to reach 17 total bases in a game without hitting 4 HRs

Obviously this is because he is the first one to have a stolen base during said game

Walker Cooper ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_Cooper ) getting mentioned as one of the other players with 6 hits and 10 RBIs is gonna ruin my plans to use Walker Cooper in the Grid because he played for 6 NL teams back when there were 8 NL teams (Cooper is also from the same general area, so if Russ Morman, Mort or Walker Cooper, or Rick Sutcliffe fit into a grid)

Missed in the incredible greatness of Ohtani, the Twins lost and that dropped them into a tie with Detroit for the final wild card in what is shaping up to be a close stretch run for the middle teams of the AL Central.

Yeah the last few days have finally brought playoff clinching

Brewers clinched the NL Central

Yankees, Dodgers and Guardians have all clinched playoff berths

The Phillies magic number still sits at 1 for a playoff berth

Obviously, I hate baseball right now for plenty of reasons...

But Skip Schumacher never doing an IBB for Ohtani means either knows he's getting fired in a couple of weeks, or hates everyone on his team. 

Possibly both.
