I was thinking Eddie Murray? Nope, Murray finished second a couple times but never the big kahuna. |

I was thinking Eddie Murray? I thought of him too, but I don't think he ever won a MVP. On that list with guys like Jeter and Winfield as the greatest players never to win a MVP. |

Hicks and IKF are now both in the XBH column thanks to the Rays…

The good news: Hicks with his first extra base hit and scores Trevino from first base.
The bad news: Hicks just bought himself another month of regular playing time.

Last switch hitter to win the AL MVP was Vida Blue… RIP. Sounds like a trick question. It is. I’m telling you guys, it was Vida Blue… |

Shocking, Gleyber makes better contact when he goes to RF.

Gleyber with an opposite field single that scores Hicks from second base for a 5-0 lead.

Rizzo with a walk and a pretty sneaky move in that at bat. With a 2-2 count, Rizzo guessed curve ball and stepped up in the box just before the pitch was thrown. That may have messed up the pitcher just enough to leave that pitch inside to drive the count full.

It’s Sunday.
Cole on the mound
We score early
We tack on
Slumping hitters suddenly contributing
Cole throwing foul ball HRs, not fair
This must be the afterlife
I regret to inform you of my passing. Harrison Bader will be taking my place from here forward…
