78 tough pitches
The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
I miss Raisor
Yeah....during the British Open they kept showing Ian Pulter and I wanted to put a hole in the wall.
Never easy for Homer.
This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.
Everybody clap your hands. They like that in LA apparently as well. Puig up with a runner on. Votto didn't look so smooth on that attempt...
I'm a big enough umpiring nerd to look this up (and pile on the home plate umpire). The Director of MLB Umpiring advises the umpire do and say nothing when a runner misses the plate.
Edit: It looks like the rule in high school is different, at least for softball. The umpire is indeed supposed to supposed to signal "safe" first when the runner misses the plate. The justification is that by making a no call, the umpire would be tipping his hand about whether the runner touched the plate. Weird.

That zone got really small really fast for Homer.
Ump squeezing Homer
I wish Homer got the zone Kershaw gets.
This is the ol Left Hander rounding third and heading for home.

Thanks to Hanley and Martingly
I feel like Puig is on the verge of catching up to Homer's high heat.
I bet Homer is a terrible hug.
Nice Job, David.

Homer has made the kid sensation look mortal tonight.
Rounding third and heading for home...
Man Homer is battling tonight. I love it.
