    The road team bats first in a scenario with a higher chance to drive in a run and take the lead. And if they do score, they now know how to pitch/defend to make sure the other team doesn't score to tie or win. So the home team batting from behind seems like a disadvantage to me.

    But on the flip side, if the road team doesn't score, the home team now knows they just need 1 to win the game and could just focus solely on moving up the runner.
    Yea but you know you can end it if you're the home team. That's a much better alternative. You can scratch one across as the road team and then the home team can end it with a 2 run Hr in the next inning.

    I don't think that's that debatable Maj lol Do you want the chance to end it in one swing or one inning to scratch one across. Knowing the home team can still tie it or win it. Think about that.

    It's stupid regardless. And if we had to absolutely do this they should of made the runner start at 1st. Because you can squash things with a dp. Which happens quite often. Instead of automatically putting him in scoring position.

      Gausman doesn't like that they're using diff balls for Judge at bats.

      I get it's because they want to for sure ID the ball, but I wonder if it feels or moves even slightly different (such as not being rubbed like a regular ball) vs just a regular ball for any other at bat, or if that could throw stuff off for Judge ABs.

        I'm still annoyed Boone pitched to Vlad man I'm not doing that in a video game. Base open. You walk Vladdy. He has been very good against the Yankees. I'm not messing with it. Kirk has been good too. But that's a easy decision for me.

        I still don't understand it. I'll give Boone credit though. He manages with intensity and really protects his team. He's grown on me. But that was a dumb ****ing decision. Kirk beats us. Then it is what it is. Ugh.

          Mets and Braves will have to get creative to get their series in Atlanta in this weekend. With mutual off days Thursday there is talk of moving the series up a day, off Friday and Saturday then play a doubleheader Sunday

              Why is Ozuna still on the Atlanta roster? Get rid of him, man.

                We get the bad Blue Jays tonight: Poor baserunning and a Bichette error. Seen lots of these games.

                    Congrats Yankee fans. Pretty low key celebration on the field.

                    Got to like Judge's chances tying the HR record tomorrow with terrible Mitch White taking the mound for the Jays.

                      3 balks in one inning by the same pitcher.. I cannot remember ever seeing that.

                        And they aren't even balks. He 100% was set on the 3rd one. Total ridiculousness by the umpires here.

                            All on the same batter.. that umpire had some kind of vendetta with the Marlins or that specific pitcher to call that 3 times. Technically, no the pitcher didn't fully come set (his hands continued to slightly move) but it's what almost every pitcher does these days. Hardly any of these guys come to a full stop anymore

                              The pitcher never had a balk in his career before. Now he is tied for the most in the majors this season after that inning. lol
