This game is obviously AI generated. It's the only way Rodon goes 8 innings.

I saw Sanchez put down six fingers at one point. (That would be a lot funnier if we didn't have pitch-com yet.)

So do you start Rodon vs. Boston and sit Cole, whose last five games resulted in a 5.34 ERA and a HR nearly every three innings? Boston does hit lefties a bit better than righties (opposite of TB). But boy, Rodon looks locked in.

I think I'd want Schlittler and Rodon if I can only pick two...

"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
