Baseball

I’d rather watch the game than have the announcers talk to the players and endure watching Ortiz stroll through the dugout.
I'm ok with it for an All-Star Game. MLB actually has a pretty big player visibility problem where they don't put their stars front and center. Have you seen Drive to Survive on Netflix? One of the reasons F1 is huge right now is because they know how to market their drivers and Principals by making them more available to the media.

It was unbearable at times. When I watched a game on Apple that one time, they did an inning with no announcers and it was just sounds of the stadium. I wish I had the option to watch all games like that. If MLB had a toggle switch, I'd probably sign up immediately.
 
Took a weekend trip to Minneapolis and went to Target Field. What a fun stadium. Fairly intimate and I love how it's cut into the side of that little end piece of downtown. Plus, you can Metro to a game. Finally broke my streak of the home team losing a game I attend in a stadium for the first time.

Did you get a giant hot dog with the works?
 
@CrazyDiamond84 wut are The Brewers doing? Why would they trade Hader when you are in the midst of a post-season push? Hader could potentially be pitching against the Brewers in the Post-Season this fall.
I like the move to trade Hader away while his value is still pretty high. But yeah I don't like that it was to another contender. Its been time to move on from him, though. He's been amazing for us for years, but also has blown a lot of big games including playoff games. His mid-season struggles this year could have been a sign to move on. Devin Williams is still 🔥, and should be a great closer. Hopefully this Roger's guy is good too. Not sure about the rest.

As a Padres fan, I can tell you that Rogers has been struggling lately. He comes in to close, allows runners on, lots of 3 ball counts, and a few blown saves. Lamet is solid, Ruiz is young and exciting, so I’m bummed we’re losing him.
