“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
Suarez had that "gonna get me some of that" look in his eyes. Patience is thy friend, Geno.

Crazy OF plays so far early in this game
If the scorecards are becoming obsolete, then stop saying who it was hit to (G-6) and start naming the hole it was hit to. Divide the infield up with RF line to 45 feet, and so on. Then note the player that fielded it at that point. So a grounder into the 2 hole that the shortstop fields would be noted as G(2)6-1. I'd even suggest breaking the infield up into 5 wedges that includes a wedge going up the middle.

Scorekeeping rant:
I think the second infielder on the right should be designated the second baseman, regardless of who he actually is. The infield should be 3B-SS-2B-1B, and the outfield should be LF-CF-RF. (If a team brings in a fifth infielder in a late-inning situation, then the infield alignment should be designated 3B-SS-CF-2B-1B.)

so far, so good against Thames

Thames is totally fooled by Castillo's changeup
