ha the braves reply coordinater this year is Charles Thomas. He was fun to watch. Was mad when they traded him to the A's.

of course it was the right move, but whatever. (got tim hudson back in the trade after all..)

so the white sox will set baseball history tonight.

There have been about 160 players in MLB history with the last name "Smith," and about 111 with the last name Johnson. Other common baseball last names include "Davis," "Jackson," "Jones" and "Gonzalez." So it's actually a bit surprising that, for Friday's game against the Twins, the White Sox managed to do something that's never been done before -- start three outfielders with the same last name:

Wait, you might be thinking, didn't Felipe, Matty and Jesus Alou start a game together when they played for the Giants? The answer to that question is below:

Though they occasionally played in the same game together, you never saw "Alou" written three times on a starting lineup. From the New York Times:
On Sept. 15, [1963], Felipe played all three outfield positions, and Matty and Jesus joined him in the outfield as late-inning substitutes. Two days later, Felipe started again and Matty and Jesus moved into the outfield late in the game. And on Sept. 22, they played in the outfield together one last time, with Felipe again starting and ultimately playing all three positions before Matty and Jesus flanked him in the late innings.

The Alous all played in the same game one more time, on Sept. 25, when Felipe started and his brothers pinch-hit.

The next season Felipe was traded to the Milwaukee Braves. The brothers all played at least 15 seasons in the major leagues, but the chances for an all-Alou outfield were over

Rob Manfred booed at Suntrust Park. All is right in the world.

For putting Sam Holbrook at 3rd base tonight.

The bloated corpse of Eric Gregg not available?

 

[Windu]

WTF for? The walk rule?

all commissoners deserved to be booed. Unless he decides to change the 7th inning Alcohol cutoff and to mandate no ketchup on hotdogs.

 

[TheCochese]

no ketchup on hotdogs.

I will fight you.

 

[Tall4Life]

my sox just cant catch a break this week huh

 

[Chase17]

Not liking Porcello's chances of repeating lol

 

[Heroman]

Let go braves

 

[detectiveconan1]

I'm predicting a Volquez meltdown next inning, he looks pretty bad out there.

 

[Frozenprince]

Thor is bae

 

[Lexxism]

SMOAK

 

[Windu]

Lulz @ Manfred looking like a midget next to Chip and Joe in the booth

 

[Lexxism]

LOL RIP

 

[bonesmccoy]

Fuck they're so so so so bad.

Sanchez dealing in rounded meat nuggets.

 

[Windu]

first pitch to Erick Aybar, right in the ribs. Looked intentional. I guess the braves didn't like Aybar sucking so much last year.

 

[Chuck]

Schoop and Hardy are apparently the dudes to be afraid of against Toronto.

dOPe

 

[Goose_Se7en]

Thor is bae

So is Duda right now.

On that ball...No había duda (translation: no doubter)

 

[Choomp]

Lucas Duda is a god damned monster

 

[BumRush]

Duda though...

Also Conforto has a gooooooorgeous swing

 

[TheGameshark]

Crushed to center field

If only trumbo can get one

 

[Goose_Se7en]

Duda though...

Also Conforto has a gooooooorgeous swing

Lol I almost get hot and bothered by it as Keith does. Remember when Conforto came up? Keith had like the biggest man crush on his swing.

 

[captmcblack]

I would be enjoying these Yankees games so much more if Greg Bird could get out of his slump...

 

[BumRush]

Lol I almost get hot and bothered by it as Keith does. Remember when Conforto came up? Keith had like the biggest man crush on his swing.

His swing honestly is perfect though...He's going to be a superstar

 

[Loco4Coco]

His swing honestly is perfect though...He's going to be a superstar

He still tends to chase pitches in the dirt. Whens he learns to lay off those, forget it.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Lucas Duda is a god damned monster

Wat Duda do?

 

[RBH]

Teheran not looking too good tonight

 

[Choomp]

Wat Duda do?

Solo shot, dead center

 

[Goose_Se7en]

His swing honestly is perfect though...He's going to be a superstar

Oh, no doubts there. If we just gave him more playing time.

Thor's starting to unravel here. We need him to get deep in this game.

 

[Chase17]

lol

I hope Price's recovery stays on track.

At least Sale has been good.

 

[detectiveconan1]

Gordon!!!!

 

[Windu]

Teheran not looking too good tonight

he has looked awful. any other team he probably would have given up 5 runs by now.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Solo shot, dead center

I wasnt a big Duda fan but he's been real good so far.

 

[Sanjuro]

lol

I hope Price's recovery stays on track.

 

[BumRush]

Heads up baserunning by Jose

 

[Goose_Se7en]

Rivera whiffed on that breaking ball big time. Grandy just seems lost up there. Late on fastballs, bat speed just isn't there. Continues to pull off...Just eh.

 

[Goose_Se7en]

Is it just me or did anyone notice Noah rub the fingers of his pitching hand? Blister?

And Say Hey Grandy!

 

[RBH]

Getting so lucky that we're playing a team that's worse than us!

 

[Loco4Coco]

Blister again for Syndergaard?
