There's no way Alonso beats that. Julio went HAM
Fatigue got to Julio 😔
Damn. I guess it's Arozarena for me then. Anyone but Vlad.
Gotta put my team Mexico jersey on now 😂
Those jerseys were 🔥🔥
Brutal.
Julio!! 🤯
Big brain take: they juiced the balls for the Home Town Hero!! You heard it here first!
How cool would it be if he won it!
100% rooting for Julio now.
JFC Julio is crushing it! Shout out to Peña spotting that ball perfectly every time! Do you see that little spin he's putting on the ball? Looks like he's hanging a slider with no break right over the plate.
Alonso needs another pitcher. Call to the bullpen brought to you by T-Mobile
That pitch away is just not working for Alonso
You think?
Wtf Luis Robert that was CRAZY
Such a sweet swing. I'm not sure he even broke a sweat
Watch out for a dad pitching to his son 👀 Rutschman 👀
Holy shit that switch.
That was unbelievable
What was that, 7/8 from the other side of the plate? The guy handicapped himself in the first 3/4 of the round!
Randy's gonna hit 40 too! He was on fire in that last 30 seconds
Quick aside: is anyone using the "Chat feature?"
There's a chat feature?
Not really. It flattens the comment threads and sorts by new. More like a chat room than a typical lemmy thread
Coach not pitching too well for Robert 😬
I like rooting for the underdogs and I think Arozarena and Garcia are both going to surprise some people so I wouldn't mind seeing one of them win it.
Alternatively it would definitely be fun if Julio wins it at home.
If not Randy, then I'm rooting for Julio to take down Petey.
I'm so torn. I feel like I need to root for Alonso because he's out there reppin' the Dad Bod for all of us but then again, the young guys are so much fun to watch!
Ikr! Adolis' pop is kinda crazy rn
Damn Mookie come on man LOL
FR though I love Mookie. Guy's a ball player. Funny to see him next to Vladdy though.
Vladdy is just huge 😅
Not enough meat!
Playoff Randy vs Smooth LouBob
Pulling for Robert here. He looked really good in the first round.
Well rested too. 27 before the bonus
Oh shit come on Randy!!!!
ugh
Randy should've slowed down a tad haha
He was really hitting them quick there. Just didn't have the power at the end.
Well at least it was exciting to the end!
How many homers do you think Marshawn can hit?
He was just there so he wouldn't get fined.
Go Mookie! If not Mookie, would love to see Randy or Julio win it all
Mookie ain't got enough meat on his bones!
Ay you'd be surprised! Big arms, compact swing can take him a long way :)
