Hah. Looks like the ump has a big strike zone for both teams. TB announcers whining about it for their team.

John Flaherty...my least favorite booth guy. Mine too. Very bland. My Extra Innings package is only allowing me the Tampa Bay feed, with ex-Yank broadcaster Dwayne Staats. I don’t remember him. That must have been prior to the YES Network and Extra Innings packaging. |

Yeah, Staats goes back to the old MSG days. He's okay for the most part. Nice first for Kluber.

Wow, the shock bunt from Bruce not pushed hard enough.

Bruce with the right idea, just didn’t bunt the ball far enough from the catcher.

Wow, the shock bunt from Bruce not pushed hard enough. But, at least they know he’ll try it now. Still a positive play... |

Yeah, I didn't mind the effort. He hasn't been tearing the cover off the ball anyway.

Hill looking like the proverbial crafty southpaw so far. Only lefties are allowed to be crafty as far as I know.

You got that right. Plus Mick was an outstanding drag bunter. Helped that he could get to first in 3.1 from the left side. |

Third is not DJ's position and it showed there.

DJ did nearly everything right, except the throw. Would have been a nice play.
