Morales’s blast instead turned a blown-save-loss into a blown-save-win for Loutos. Nick Schnell, who hit the previous walkoff HR for Rochester on May 31, doubled twice to lead the Rochester hit column.

Luke may I suggest you truly make your snarks about Elijah even drier this way
Wait for it .. yes you Elijah like that curve ball you have trouble with making you the next subject matter of Clint’s Trouble with the Curveball 2
Wait for it … Yo- yo hit a HR like Jean Harlows character read a book in the Grand Hotel .
Wait for it Cade .. tonight is the draft . This might be your most important start in your short career .
Cause we all know the Nats front office “ Dons “ will draft pitcher heavy blended with the athlete – hitter profile we saw in 2024.
Have a golden Banquet matinee day
Luke you used the word help in relation to bullpen aid
Some stadiums should play the Joe Cocker tune when the reliever runs in ( do these kids run in anymore?) like the 70s with the golf cart driving them in over the hot Astro turf especially in Philly where the Fanatic probably yelled out to the pampered relievers : try wearing this for 9 innings !
