Just like that, Jays blow the lead.

At least a quarter of the pitches Bass has thrown has gone in the dirt and almost a wild pitch.

Stupid game to lose. Give up a HR to start the bottom of the 9th, walk a guy, he steals 2nd, throwing error so he goes to 3rd, then a ground ball to the 3B, throws home, ball off target and game over.

At least the Yankees lost too, but games like this would help put pressure on them.

Marcell Ozuna just hit a ball maybe 470+ feet.

Freddie Freeman hit his first career grand slam the other night, believe it or not.

... and he just hit another one.

What just happened in Atlanta? I'm so confused. Somebody with a badge in the stands was ejected?

EDIT: Also, I've seen this black operatic guy sing the National Anthem maybe three or four times before (always in Atlanta, perhaps?), and he is always sharp on the same notes. I know I'm bickering at something kind of weird, but it's not even close. I don't know if he is even aware of the fact? He always sounds like that.

At first they thought it was the Nationals GM, but I never heard if that was confirmed or it was some other person.

Timothy Miller is a staple of Braves home games. It might be intentional, idk. That's how he always sounds though.

Yeah I have no idea what was going on. The Braves commentators suggested that it was perhaps related to somebody standing by themselves not wearing a mask, haha. Wouldn't that be something.

Okay yeah I've definitely seen him for sure and forget where I've seen him. It's weird, because he's way sharp in a lot of notes, like very noticeably so and always at the same places.

Re: 8/31 - 9/13 Game Discussion Thread

10-1 but here comes Bryse Wilson. He finally gets an out after 5 hitters. It should have been a double play ball, but it was booted and only got one. I wonder if he'll blame this outing on that 1 play.

edit - Well after 4 straight hits, the next 3 all record an out.

Nice rare comeback win for the Pirates. Hayes still looks good, Polanco man is really struggling. Batting like .150 and looks lost in the field.

He is an opera singer in Atlanta and usually does Sunday games if not more. Your ears must not work right ..... haha. No clue if something is sharp but will trust the opera singer knows what he is doing.

I'm behind in the game, but did anyone find out what happened to the person thrown out and who it was?

Re: 8/31 - 9/13 Game Discussion Thread

^ Still not sure who was ejected, sorry!

By the way, I said National Anthem and I meant God Bless America. I hope you all caught onto that and adjusted accordingly, heh.

EDIT: On that note, I'm not saying he's a bad singer haha, just I've always only caught him be sharp in the same places and wondered "He hasn't corrected that by now?" I just went onto YouTube and grabbed the first hit on there from him at Turner Field, and he sounded fine in that clip, so I dunno it may be recent. I just re-watched the one again today though and saw a tear coming down his right cheek as he was singing. Beautiful.

But hey, as long as he never does this then he'll always be okay in my book:

Yankees lose again and Jays for the time being are taking care of business in Boston.

We could be starting the Yankees vs Jays series tomorrow with Jays 1 game ahead of the Yankees.

Moreland has been absolute trash since we’ve acquired him. Hope he snaps out of it.

I wonder if the Cubs can figure out how to have Hendricks and Darvish alternate starting every game?

Joe West ejects the Nats GM for not wearing a mask, and even called security to kick him out.
