    Rich Hill was very unhappy with Yuli Gurriel's gesture to Yu Darvish in Game 3. Hill stepped off the mound so the fans could boo more.

    Nick Castellanos said he did not know the kid he threw the baseball to was the kid who dropped Brandon Marsh’s home run. He had no idea. “Maybe there are no accidents,” he said. The Philadelphia Phillies may well be a Team of Destiny.

    Mike Trout declined to comment on whether Joc Pederson violated the rules of the fantasy league. He said he is unsure if he’ll resign as commissioner for this coming season. “Every commissioner I know gets booed,” he said.

    I asked Walker Buehler whose idea it was for him to pitch tonight. "I'll give you one guess," he said. What a riveting ending to the baseball season.

    The amount of exhaustion, despair and anger I’m hearing from people around baseball — people who have dedicated their lives to this industry — is remarkable. The owners are breaking the spirits of the people who run their businesses.

    Justin Turner torched Rob Manfred’s description of Commissioner’s Trophy. “The only thing devaluing it right now is the fact that is says ‘Commissioner’ on it. It’s just unbelievable. Is he that out of touch with our game, that those are his comments?”
