The air quality in Cleveland is really bad because of the wild fires in Ontario. As your resident dual citizen, sorry.

Starting a series with a postponement due to air quality is … a first. Having the second half of the subsequent double header delayed from rain? Yeah that tracks. A first game winning home run from the boy from Down Under? I’ll take it!

- Second half same as the first.
- Hoskins stole his first base all season, so maybe we’re going to push more?

- Logan Allen came back up for the double header and did .… fine, I guess.
- Scoring on a wild pitch? Guards Ball.
- Bailey might have been safe and won it if he slid, but it’s hard to say. He’s not very fast.
- Kwan with a three hit night? He’s getting his mojo back!
- Did … I … a walk off home run for Bazzana?! Is that legal?!

- This game was a lot of baserunning gaffs. On the one hand, it’s good to be aggressive. But … the balance is off. We had 5 outs that can be attributed to baserunning.
- Paul Skenes was not his usual amazing self, but that doesn’t really make him a bad pitcher. His off days are still incredible.
- I’m not sure why we don’t slide into home…
The Twins are in town starting tomorrow night. The 21st is Disability Pride night, which is really interesting to see them do!
Angel Martínez is on his rehab assignment. José could come back any day.
