What the heck did I just watch?
Look, this was supposed to be a boring game. It’s a Saturday game in late September between two technically-not-eliminated teams, with two pitchers going that are awful to watch.
I mean, It’s Jeremy versus Jake. Is there a matchup that screams “playing out the string” louder than Jeremy Hellickson versus Jake Odorizzi? Honestly, I was kind of praying for a no-hitter (for either guy) just to get this one over at a reasonable hour.
And then this game happened?
What the heck, baseball gods?
