Fangraphs After Dark.

This at-bat counts as a "battle" I think

I also faced a guy with legit majors heat as an adolescent and I basically never played baseball again.
The guy in front of me got beaned by a 95 MPH fastball and I was in the on-deck circle.

Brendan, who was the better WA high school pitcher, Blake Snell or you? And who is the best active player from WA?
Brendan Gawlowski

Blake Snell and Blake Snell

Did you leave while on-deck?
Derek

WOW
5 Run Homer
10:20
That was cool as fuck
Derek
10:20
That is some pretty sweet postseason baseball
Lzfreak
10:20
Oh no they killed the rally!
Brendan Gawlowski
10:20
After what happened earlier this year, that's awesome
5 Run Homer
10:21
what is a Michael Brosseau
Shiiiiiiiin Gojira!
10:22
If I were on the Rays, I would be the taunting the Yankees with a British accent
tommytoms
10:22
the cardboard cutouts don't seem very excited
David

Heck of an AB there against Chapman

MIke Brosseau, seven years in the minors but the Rays know talent and find it in the strangest places.
5 Run Homer
10:22
Why is Chapman getting hit always the coolest thing I’ve ever seen
Derek
10:23
Should have kept it tied though to avoid the odd-run lead
Brendan Gawlowski
10:23
Still the weirdest damn thing I've heard on a broadcast
cg
10:23
biggest karma home run in history
Brendan Gawlowski
10:23
What else would be close?
Erik
10:23
What is the theoretical limit of percentage of runs scored off of homers that you would still enjoy and recognize as baseball?
bosoxforlife
10:24
That is Morton and Snell in the pen. Who comes in?
Brendan Gawlowski
10:24
I don't think we're there, but in 2019 we hit the point on the curve where I think the prevalence of dingers made the game noticeably worse
sadtrombone
10:24
I was actually about type something in response to Brendan's thing about facing Chapman, like "he has given up a lot of homers this year, it's weird, probably just a fluke" and then...this.
Brendan Gawlowski
10:24
Could still be a fluke!
10:25
And of course that probably dies on the front of the track if he hits it with a 2018 ball
Oddball Herrera
10:25
It's not homers that kills the game, it's homers + strikeouts
Brendan Gawlowski
10:25
They are intertwined
This kind of HR rate without the strikeouts would also be bad
Eel Ffilc
10:25
My forearm would have certainly snapped in half had I celebrated like that with Yandy
5 Run Homer
10:26
What’s the history between Chapman and Brosseau? I’m out of the loop
Brendan Gawlowski
10:26
Chapman missed his head with 101 by two inches earlier this season
bosoxforlife
10:26
Erik, I love your question. I still can't stop watching even after 70+ years but I enjoyed the actual game more when there were far fewer strikeouts, along with a lot of hit and runs which have disappeared.
Brendan Gawlowski
10:27
Of course! It's still great, and some people really enjoy the extra dingers. It's not my preferred way to see the game played, but let's not get crazy

Wish tbs had shown a shot of those Yankees fans in that condo they kept showing earlier
