baseball on tv is much better when you can hear the organist play. Basically like a radio broadcast.

I'd pay money for stadium surround alternate sound channel.

Yeesh, the Braves are bad... even play sloppy

Does the winner get a trophy for this game, or do they just have Bragging rights?

having a second baseman play center field will do that.

I hope he gets in trouble.

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Fort Bragg officials are reminding would-be attendees of Sunday's MLB game between the Atlanta Braves and Miami Marlins that tickets to the historic contest are nontransferable and cannot be sold.

Eric Hill, the recreation division chief for Fort Bragg's Directorate of Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation, tells the Fayetteville Observer (http://bit.ly/296bShU ) that giving the tickets away, whether or not money changes hands, could lead to some spectators being removed from the ballpark and "repercussions" for the service member who originally owned the tickets.

The MLB and the MLB Players Association are spending about $5 million to build a 12,500-capacity ballpark and bring an MLB game to an active military installation for the first time.

Hill says each ticket holder is required to sign documents pledging not to sell or give away the tickets.

edit:

FYI, I got my ticket through a friend whose entire unit got 'em. He was gonna bring his GF who doesn't like baseball so he took me instead.

I want to see them fight to the death.

The person who gave him the ticket should be kicked out of the military.

4 Lyfe.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Phew.

 

[detectiveconan1]

Nice the Marlins didn't embarrass themselves on national television.

Also, I really hope the tomahawk chop dies next year. It really is one of the worst things in sports.

They weren't allowed to do that though. Ticket holders literally had to sign paperwork saying they wouldn't transfer or sell tickets. Somebody's going to get in trouble.

 

[lazybones18]

make this an annual event pls

 

[Mr. Enigma]

He was looking on TINDER for a ticket and was offering to pay $1,000.

 

[Silkworm]

brandon mccarthy is back

we'll see how this goes

Very pleased with his performance today. Hopefully McCarthy can continue to look just as good in his future starts

I'm surprised it lasted this year.

another Cuban dud for the dodgers

LOS ANGELES -- The Dodgers on Sunday sent pitcher Yaisel Sierra outright to the minors, removing him from the 40-man roster to make room for Brandon McCarthy's return from the 60-day disabled list.

Sierra, now 25, was signed in February out of Cuba to a six-year, $30 million contract, which was the reason no other team claimed the right-handed pitcher on waivers. Sierra received $6 million as a signing bonus, and has roughly half of his $1 million 2016 salary remaining, so any team claiming him on waivers would have been responsible for roughly $23.5 million in remaining salary.

In 11 starts with Class-A Rancho Cucamonga, Sierra has a 7.16 ERA, with 48 strikeouts and 17 walks in 49 innings. Sierra has been a colossal bust to date. But, should Sierra turn things around one day, either as a starter or reliever, the Dodgers still get to keep him. Just off the 40-man roster, for now.

what will you give us for him barves???

Want Jim Johnson again?

 

[Corran Horn]

Hopefully he buys all his teammates dinner with that salary.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Was MarlinsGuy there at the game or he wasn't allowed?

 

[Mr. Enigma]

He wasn't there. Nobody outside of the active military or Department of Defense was supposed to be admitted in. He's been openly calling out Zack Hample for somehow getting into the game.

Thank you for the info.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

I've got a handful of private eyes doing some digging on Marlins Man. I'm sure he tried to slime his way into that game too.

 

[Sanjuro]

I tried to go to the game too, then I saw the Marlins and Braves were playing.

Lol. Braun called out for batting out of order despite getting a hit.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Cubs finally moving Heyward down in the lineup.

 

[GK86]

Adam McCalvy @AdamMcCalvy

After singling with two outs in the first inning, Braun called out. Brewers' lineup card apparently had Lucroy 3rd, Braun 4th.

Chelsea Janes ‏@chelsea_janes

Inning ends because the Brewers batted out of order. Braun singled, but it was supposed to be Lucroy. He is out. Braun up next.



Lol Brewers.

Lol Brewers.

I feel like this is a good reason why baseball should not be played at 10am, especially after a flight

 

[Corran Horn]

Damnit guys I'll have to listen to warriors talk on local radio again. Wish I could block that talk

 

[gamz]

Cubs finally moving Heyward down in the lineup.

Yep. At his request. lol

He basically told Maddon to do what needs to be done.

He's not having any fun out there.

Heard rumors Dodgers pursuing Archer?

Why did Cygnus get popped?

I love playing the Reds.

Imagine having to listen to Warriors talk when you're from a town that not only has a team in first place in baseball, but also doesn't even have a basketball team.

It's maddening.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

He doesn't know how it got in his system.

 

[chicagocubsfan]

All the collisions today, jeez.

 

[Dominican Power]

The Nats are trash

That last one scared the crap out of me.

Anyways, I wish we could play the Reds everyday.

Bases loaded, 0 outs, 0 runs

I love playing the Reds.

And I love watching Hendricks pitch.
