Great win to kick of the second half for Atlanta...Freddie with 3 RBI and Ender with an amazing play in the 9th. I swear, Inciarte makes those plays routinely...guy is amazing.

Also, don't look now, but Johan Camargo is starting to get more PT than Swanson...will be interesting to see going forward how this shakes out.

With Freddie at 3rd it makes it even more difficult to give the young guys the playing time they deserve. If the Braves get rid of Adams moving forward then I wouldn't mind seeing Camargo at 3rd some more. He played real well there before Freddie came back.

Looking further into the future, Camargo could always play 2nd once Phillips is gone, or the Braves may even move Phillips this year and open that opportunity. However, Albies is making great progess, so the Braves have a good problem with their infield.

Also, Freddie only had 2 RBi's tonight .

All the major and minor A's trade chips except Lowrie did great tonight. Gray, Madson, Doolittle, Casilla pitched a shutout. Alonso with a solo HR, Joyce with a 2B and RBI, Rajai 2 for 3 with a HR.

Sucks if it's Sonny's last start in/with Oakland but that's the biz.

I saw 3 of Freddie's RBI's...he had a solo home run and then a 2-run single in the 8th. What am I missing?

NM - I went and checked the summary...I had the sound turned down, so didn't realize they didn't give him an RBI after Phillips had slipped. That's pretty ridiculous, IMO...Phillips would have scored easily, which is why the throw went to 2nd. Oh well...Freddie SHOULD have had 3 RBI.

Here you go, sir. Someone else you'd consider mediocre.

Saturday in middle of July and not a single game on right now?

Oof! What a way for the Yanks to lose that one. That's going to have a carry over effect.

Never bought this argument in baseball. Momentum only lasts as long as your starters keep pitching well

This!

And when a struggling team wins a big game that "turns their season around."

Lol so sick of these clichés.

This Yankees-Red Sox game is a pitcher's delight. Sale vs Severino and now 1-1 in the 10th inning.

Kimbrel couldn't get the 4 out save for Sale.

Addy with the home run stick. Another homer for him after last night's go-ahead shot.

Welp, this is just great. Liriano goes down with neck tightness and the Jays can't hit to save their lives.

The Dodgers look unbeatable right now. The score update on the bottom of FS1 seems to be getting bigger each time around.

It would be a great thing for the Dodgers if they can run away and hide in the 2nd half. That way they can rest Kershaw a bit and have their rotation the way they want it to be for the playoffs.
