Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary…

“In the event that Jack wins the second half as well, the second finalist position will be given to the half’s runner up. That’s all fine and dandy, but now that we’re embarking on the second half, everything is erased and we start over! We have one finalist for the championship round, but now we need to choose our second finalist. There has been something of a discussion this year regarding players opting out of the All Star Game, whether that is something they should be allowed to do, and if them doing so invalidates the entire purpose of the game. Well everyone, I hope you’re feeling rested and ready to go for the second half of the season.”

“Sitting at 77 pitches with two outs in the sixth, Lovullo went to the mound to get Gallen with runners at first and second and left-handed-hitting Jason Heyward coming to the plate. “It’s like biting on an onion,” Lovullo said. Taking him out of the game was a little bit of a challenge, but he put us in a position to win that baseball game.” Gallen had been told that 85 pitches would be his max, and he felt good about his chances of getting Heyward out after retiring him easily his first two times up. And this one was as close as you can get, but we just didn’t close it out.” And after he got the first two hitters of the inning out relatively easily, it seemed like that trend was going to continue.”
