🚨CHANGE 124🚨 6/9 @Nationals at @SFGiants T9 CJ Abrams now has a single instead of a throwing error charged to Matt Chapman. The throwing error remains, allowing Abrams to take 2nd. As a result, 1 run in the inning is changed to earned against Tristan Beck. Change 2 for SF

IT'S HAPPENING!!!!! Alex Cora, @RedSox manager, has announced that on Monday, Danny Jansen will substitute in for Reese McGuire at catcher (who is not on the current roster) for the resumption of the 6/26 game with the @BlueJays), meaning he will not only become the first player

So there is a lot at play. Jansen is the batter that is at the plate when the @RedSox and @BlueJays game resumes, and he had an 0-1 count. Since the pinch hitter doesn’t inherit a 2-strike count, all action will be charged to the pinch hitter. However, to make room for Jansen,

Could new Red Sox catcher Danny Jansen (technically) play for both teams in the same game? It's on the table with the Red Sox and Blue Jays resuming a suspended game at the end of August. masslive.com/redsox/2024/07…

🚨WEIRD PLAY ALERT🚨 First, weird doesn’t do this justice. This is from Wednesday night’s game between AAA @ABQTopes at Reno @Aces … with one out B9, ABQ leads 4-3, but Reno has bases loaded. Connor Kaiser hits a gapper for a double and seemingly the win … BUT … R3 (Aramis

SO YOU WANT TO BE AN OFFICIAL SCORER? Here is an unreal occurance in today's @Marlins @Cubs game. Jesus Sanchez is internationally walked, but he never goes to first base before leaving for Christian Pache. The Cubs appealed the play and Pache was ruled out 13. Rule 9.07(b)(7)

HAPPY DANNY JANSEN DAY!!! History will be made at 2:05 Eastern today when Danny Jansen enters at catcher for the @RedSox catching the at bat he started with the @BlueJays, becoming the first player in MLB history to play for both teams in the same game. I can confirm that the

And this is how the streak ends with Jacob Wilson as the pick … this is correctly scored a fielder’s choice and not a hit because the runner from first was forced out at second. A BRUTAL way for a 50-game streak to end. He was so close to $5.6 million.

Beat the Streak player lotank has picked 50 straight correct players. No one has ever gotten to 57, where an eligible winner takes home $5.6M. They picked Jacob Wilson tonight 👀

Doing what I do here, I hear a LOT of announcers, and they can ruin a moment (just listen to the 2024 Panthers Stanley Cup championship radio call. It's unlistenable), or they can raise the moment into the stratosphere. That is what @TMacPhils Phils does here. This hit will live

Huge thanks to @TMacPhils for the shoutout last night on @Phillies broadcast! This account will help explain why scoring decisions change and provide a better understanding of the complex art of baseball scoring. True story: Tom was one of the first people in baseball to

Replying to @ScoringChanges
That would not only make him the first player to ever play for both teams in the same game, but if he enters at catcher for the restart, will have both batted and caught in the same at bat. I believe the last professional player to play for both teams in the same game was Dale

🚨WEIRD JUAN SOTO PLAY ALERT🚨 Another weird one with Juan Soto of the @Mets as earlier today vs. to @whitesox, his ball to center is trapped by Michael A. Taylor. Brandon Nimmo is on first and thinks the ball is caught, so he heads from second back to first while Soto is

🚨WEIRD PLAY ALERT🚨 Another catcher's interference in the @RedSox at @Phillies game. This is different than last night and we have seen this before. This is BOTH catcher's interference and a balk for impeding Marsh's freedom of choice to hit a pitch, and for the catcher

So last night in the @Marlins and @RaysBaseball game, there was a crazy, rare play that happened that confounded just about everyone, but in the end, this got scored correctly (and it was ruled correctly as I'm sure @CloseCallSports will discuss more in-depth). On this play,

This is actually incorrect as statistically Ohtani was the designated hitter and not the pitcher when he hit his home run in the seventh inning, so he would officially be credited with two home runs as a pitcher, and one as the DH.
