Nine home runs in the game, seven by the Padres. Hunter now at 14 HRs. Talk about a bad day at the park for the Blue Jays. But, that's baseball.

Some freakish numbers being put up right now. Age of the launch angle

Launch angle and exit velocity are killing baseball a slow death. I use to love watching MLB, but it’s frustrating to watch whiff after whiff after whiff with a HR sprinkled in. The stolen base is a lost art and fundamental facets of the game like hitting behind a runner to advance him from 2nd to 3rd with 1 out have been abandoned. If hitters don’t get their perfect pitch, they’d assume take a call 3rd strike than foul off a pitch to stay alive. Sickens me.

I'm so looking forward to seeing him play in person at Wrigley when I'm up there in July.
