It is working now, but that's embarrassing for MLB.
Chicago White Sox beat the Angels 8-1 today. I wonder when that gap in run differencial will go down. Still, maybe this year will be better than last year.
Wilmer Flores hit the game winning HR against the Reds. That was fun.

The end was shaky, but the Yankees start the season in the win column. Austin Wells picked up right where he left off in the spring, and his solid 2024 rookie season. I think he’ll be a big part of the lineup.
Judge is on pace for 243 home runs and 648 rbis!
Giants showed similar things from Last year. The Double play really is a rally killer and the Giants must of hit like 5 or more DPs today. It's a long season and they should clean that up, but it will be more entertaining if they can score runs.
He'll slow down. Probably end up with 180 and 520.
I watched most of that game, and the DP ball did seem to kill their momentum more than once in a game they should have won. Like you said, though, it's a long season. They'll adjust.
You're right, he hit one home run today instead of 3. What a bum!
Giants came back and won the series and Matt Chapman at 3rd is such a joy to watch. He made 2 great defensive plays today.
One series down, many more to go.

I enjoyed watching Fitzgerald as well.
Ramos made a great catch late in the game.
Is the rest of the league going to get a shot at using their bats?
Anyone can use them, not proprietary or anything! The rule on bats surprisingly has a lot of room for experimentation. The only requirements are that it can be no longer that 42 inches long, and no more than 2.61 inches (random number lol) in diameter at the thickest point. And that any custom colors have to be approved.
Elly De La Cruz of the Reds had a big night with a torpedo bat. They're becoming the latest must-try fad in MLB.
It’s equivalent to 6.629 cm, so I don’t think that’s it.
It probably has to do with the width of a baseball, but that ranges from 2.86 to 2.94 inches. So maybe it has to do with the width of the part of the ball that makes contact with the bat?
The top two or three teams in the league are on fire right now...
Yankees (3-0, with 36 runs scored)
Dodgers (6-0 as of this post... with 36 runs scored) Wowzers.
Padres (5-0 as of this post...) Wowzers also, but they happen to be in the same division as the Dodgers.

De La Cruz !!
With torpedo bat, De La Cruz has 7 RBIs for Reds
Using a torpedo bat, Elly De La Cruz had a single, double and two home runs with seven RBIs, as the Cincinnati Reds routed the Texas Rangers 14-3 on Monday night, and after the win, manager Terry Francona said, "I think it's more the player than the bat."
