If he's going to give up all of these dingers I'm sad Beltre was the guy who struck out.

Pancakes posted:Announcers trying to think of alternate terms for "mercy rule" and suggest "early termination". I humbly suggest that any game subject to a mercy rule be officially labeled an abortion. A team losing by more than 15 runs after 5 or 10 after 7 will be Kervorkianed.

Venezuela gave up 11, so now they have to win outright. Down 11-6 in the top of the 7th.

Pancakes posted:Awful lotta head touching in that celebration. God help Beltre if he hits a dinger. I looked him up earlier when they mentioned he's going to get to 3k hits this year and he has a really weird career stat-wise. Or distribution of stats or something? Been playing major league ball since he was 19 but aside from one legitimately amazing season at 25 he just never truly put everything together until he was 31.
