What is funny about that was that his white sox team mate just let him fall to the ground without softening the fall but I guess it happened too fast in real time.
My guess is he saw how lightly that weak-ass slap connected and just assumed Anderson was goofing around like a Diaz Brother.

For once, a pretty cool showing by Boston fans giving Miggy a standing ovation in what is likely his last AB at Fenway.

MIggy has announced he will retire after this season.
In his 20-year career - the last 16 with Detroit - he earned (2) MVPs and has (so far) hit 509 HRs with a .307 average

Vlad Jr showing some baseball IQ here against my Reds

2 baserunning mistakes here.
Benson has to leg it out to 1st. That's what triggered Jr to try this play to begin with.
And the runner - Stephenson - has to see what's happening and know that if Benson is going to be out at first he doesn't have to run to 2nd. Just keep your foot on the 1st base bag.

They are 8-1/2 games out of 1st.
You are likely referring to the wild card standings - which they are in contention for.

I do agree the crowds during the week have been sorry.
