All stadium crowd noise is from MLB The Show

Ben Clemens

12:55

The last game on being on indefinite, undefined delay is kind of frustrating

Meg Rowley

12:55

Joe, please chill, I am very happy to chat but also am quite tired

Mister Puppy

12:56

Yeah it wasn't so much the weirdness of the noise itself, moreso realizing the players are hearing the noises emit from completely empty crowds

Meg Rowley

12:57

Oh dear

12:58

Man, it seems like it would be so cool to be really fast

Also Ben

12:58

The real question: would Jo Adell have caught that?

Topper Bottoms

12:58

Brian Goodwin did... not have a banner play in the outfield just now

Ben Clemens

12:58

Wow

Baseball gets weird late at night

Phil W.

12:59

Can both of these teams win? I love each of them

Meg Rowley

12:59

surprised to see a guy do that in his home park, though he did stumble a bit

Ben Clemens

12:59

But he could have just.... run back

He also seemed like he had a beat there where he froze

Spencer

1:00

I swear Chapman had time to get back to third

Lance Biggerstaff

1:00

@Ben it almost sounded like he thought Davis told him to keep running home

the487

1:00

I think he got deked by third basemen who pretended to catch the ball

Ben Clemens

1:00

It had to be something like that, right?

Joe

1:00

That boner, brought to you by Roman

Meg Rowley

1:00

why isn't this their deal with the league

Mister Puppy

1:04

As an east coaster the only time I watch A's games are at like midnight ET over the summer, so the dark, empty coliseum and weird, atmospheric sound effects always make games here seem like fever dreams

Ben Clemens

1:04

That's a great description of it.

the487

1:05

Dodgers have outscored Giants 40-4 in their last 6 games...

Joe

1:06

It sounds like a ghost hunters recording

Meg Rowley

1:07

Oh dear

Ben Clemens

1:08

This has been a Spring-Trainingi-level sloppy inning

Gorilla in the room

1:08

Dare the Angels platoon LaStella with Pujols upon Rendon's return? Who could argue that it wouldn't improve the team?

Meg Rowley

1:09

generally I think it is just his spot but also, will be curious to see what happens if they're actually in a race

Ben Clemens

1:10

I can't believe they're even batting Pujols sixth this year

They've been hitting him 4/5 ahead of better hitters FOREVER

Phil W.

1:11

Could they put Pujols at DH when Shohei has his off days directly after pitching?

Ben Clemens

1:12

Yeah they did that when Ohtani pitched

Jon E

1:12

I still can't believe Marcus Semien has become a good defender after those just awful years

Ben Clemens

1:12

That is a good defensive play against specifically Albert Pujols

it's an infield single against every other player in baseball

1:13

But yeah overall he just got so much better

Thomas

1:14

Well now you've got me dreaming about a 2020 Pablo Sandoval infield single

Meg Rowley

1:14

ohmygod please let me sleep

Joe

1:16

Feel like I switched over to this game in the 8th, an hour ago.

Sgt. Pepper

1:16

Don't really care who wins just wanna see Trout again
