Next you're going to tell us an empty net goal isn't really a goal because the goalie isn't there.
I never said the run shouldn't count.

More like advancing on an error.I never said the run shouldn't count.
Even better, let 'em wear throwbacks every season for this game.
There was always a joy in looking across the field and seeing a patchwork of different uniforms. It was an aesthetic reflection of the purpose of the game: Here were all these players representing their various teams in their various jerseys. It was an automatic visual signal that you were not watching an ordinary game. Sure, the uniforms could occasionally clash. But that was charming far more than it was grating. It was something different! What better way to underscore that you were watching, say, an outfield with a Dodger, a Giant and a Padre than by having the players wear those actual uniforms? The All-Star Game brings players together in configurations we might otherwise never see. To have them wear their own jerseys puts a spotlight on that. The game is meant to be special. And even when that involves multiple players from one team—like this year, when the AL’s starting infield will feature not one, not two but three Rangers—the team uniforms more effectively display that, too. There’s no better way to grasp how many players a team has sent than by having them in their jerseys.
She touches on the history in the fourth or fifth paragraph. It was '21 when they started the change in uniforms.Didn't they used to do it like this where you wore your white or grey team jersey? I thought growing up it was always like this until maybe the last ten years or so. My mind went blank on this though as soon as I saw your post. And I know they did it strictly to make money on the new All-Star jerseys and hats.
He stole home almost as much on the third baseman as he did the pitcher. With a player like that, the infield never adjusted after he stole second. It looked like our D at the end of the LSU game.I still don't consider that "stealing" home. The pitcher is an idiot and in space somewhere. Same when he took third due to stupid alignment by the third baseman. NOW, amazing baserunning that Ty Cobb would tip his hat to, and very head's up by De La Cruz, but I consider stealing home when the pitcher toes the rubber and you beat the ball to the plate and called safe, even though by rule you have to call this one as well.

Congratulations to Pinckney and Hitt. While I hate it for our roster, but I hope they have a long successful career. Saw where one of our signees was drafted 16th overall by the Giants.
Yep! Would’ve loved to have seen him come back for a healthy senior campaign. He was really just rounding back into form to be honest.Caden Rose to the Red Sox in the 7th.... Good for him, not good for Bama...
Same kind of moron who thought it was a good idea to let the winner decide home field advantage in the World Series.I guess they are playing to a different audience than me, but they've made these MLB All-Star games unwatchable by constantly interviewing players throughout the entire broadcast. What kind of moron green lights this shit?
