Crazy, crazy, crazy
Well. That was a new one.
Catcher’s interference is weird in and of itself, but to have it end a game? That’s just a different level of funky.
It’s a good thing too, as I think we were all thinking that with the bases loaded and none out, the Phillies were definitely going not score and the game was going to the 11th inning.
On to the links.
Phillies news:
- Observations from the weekend series are here, including some about the “defense” Otto Kemp has at third base ($).
- When it comes to the fifth starter’s job (for now), what are the team’s plans?
MLB news:
- Ken Rosenthal gives some news and notes about the trade deadline, including some about the A’s apparently listening on some interesting arms they have ($).
- The Cubs are interested in Eugenio Suarez and Kyle Finnegan to help bolster their two weaknesses ($).
- Power rankings time! Is the NL Central now the best division in the game?
- I honestly forgot about the baseball game being played on a racetrack, but these uniforms and helmets are pretty cool.
