Dodgers/Brewers Guardians/Rays In addition to being extremely cool baseball matchups I cannot wait to watch, these are 4 of the most analytics-friendly teams in the game.

Jason Benetti gets absolutely roasted by his own production crew with the camera cut after his Austro-Turkish War reference. 🤣

On Pope Hat Night at Rate Field, Emilio Pagán recorded the save for Cincinnati. Yes, he understands the irony. But he had to make one thing clear: “It’s Pagán. Don’t forget the accent.”

Satchel Paige of the #Indians made his first major league start #OTD in 1948. The first Black pitcher in the American League after the color barrier fell the year before, Paige pitched seven strong innings and earned the victory against the #Senators.

We lost MVP Jose Ramirez to a global pandemic We lost a Jose Ramirez ring to a rain delay We’re probably about to lose the end of Jose Ramirez’s prime to a lengthy lockout Baseball gods, give this man a fucking BREAK

A cool thing about baseball is how local broadcast teams get progressively more unhinged over the course of the season. GAME 1: “This team will go as far as its rotation takes it.” GAME 108: “Yeah, chupacabras are real. I hit one with my Buick back in ‘87.”
Joe Girardi absolutely fired up about Michael Kay using his eyeglasses to stir his tea.

The other night Patrick Bailey converted 5+ stri-balls into strikes. Here is an example of three high balls with 10% or lower strike %’s called strikes. 1) Still body. 2) Extension. 3) Let’s ball sit after catching it. 4) Karate chop glove angle.

OTD in 1948, on his 42nd birthday (or maybe 52nd), the great Satchel Paige became the oldest rookie in @MLB history when he joined Cleveland. The ageless wonder went 6-1 with a 2.48 ERA to help Cleveland win the pennant and go on to win the World Series! @MLBNetworkRadio @sn_mlb
