Entering today…
Only 12 hitters had ever hit 3 homers in a postseason game.
Only 26 pitchers had ever recorded 10 strikeouts, 2 or less hits and no runs in a postseason start.
Shohei Ohtani just did both in the same game.
Raleigh: 186 wRC against LHP
Polanco: 150 wRC against LHP
Naylor: 112 wRC against LHP
John Schneider: I know it’s Game 5 of the ALCS and we’re holding a 1 run lead in the 8th but this seems like a good spot for my left handed pitcher that has been terrible for months
Your closer not pitching to the 2-3-4 hitters in the 8th inning of a 2-2 series with a 1-run lead is beyond belief
What are you saving him for? The save situation that now has disappeared? Thinking about what might come instead of what's directly in front of you...
Long-time #Leafs fan and friend just told me it would be typical, or "Leafy" if Toronto lost tonight. Told him he's wrong. What would be "Leafy" is for them to win tonight, win game 6 and lose in 7. That's "Leafy" personified! I told him to just enjoy it. Hope you do too.
I’ve worked with talented journalists, and plenty of good people.
AK may be at the top of both lists.
This 30 minute (!) sit down w/ Larry Legend is well worth your time.

My full, career-spanning, documentary-style conversation with the living, breathing legend:

Had a few ppl reach out, so...
No, I will not be back on @OHLRangers broadcasts. After almost 15 years with the station I found out via email, Friday. #OHL
I'll explain the entire story later, but those close know who called the shot, and why I've expected it.
Cheers to a great season.
And Cheers to Twitter.
