Stubbs having a nice day.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Stubbs - our secret weapon!

[LoneStarPhan]

Game day and hence the bot have Rojas scoring but I'm watching the game and Rojas is on third. He didn't go to second on the passed ball but the bot and Gameday said he did. Strange.

[EastFallowfield]

Philadelphia Phillies 2 - Kansas City Royals 0

After the first inning adventures getting a big hit here really says a lot of how much he has matured as a player. A couple years ago he would have been messed up for the rest of the game.

[bkox]

I'm pretty sure I would have found a way to keep Realmuto in the lineup today and rest him some other time. Sometimes managers need to think outside of the box.

Garrett Stubbs says Hello

[EastFallowfield]

Game day and hence the bot have Rojas scoring but I'm watching the game and Rojas is on third. He didn't go to second on the passed ball but the bot and Gameday said he did. Strange.

Schwarber with a 2nd big hit.

This looks familiar. I remember this team.

Stubbs for a cycle? Harder parts are done. I think he is officially allowed to “swing for the fences”

[EastFallowfield]

Our crack TV team had it at 7-2 for the rest of the half inning.
