not surprised. their home games aren't exactly tiger stadium in game 5 of the '84 world series.

At first it struck me as standard pandering to the new home fans, but he actually went on to describe all the different situations he's been in. He seemed genuinely amazed by the atmosphere today.

I hate the Trop so much.

he's going to love the atmosphere for home games at wrigley next year

Have you ever been there?

Nah.

It's such a weird place. I always compare it to the feeling of playing baseball in an unfinished basement when you were a little kid. Terrible stadium, but it's something to experience. Very, very surreal.

I want to go there once.

If you're ever down here in Florida, we'll hit up the Trop.

aw huh

Adrian Beltre hit for the cycle for the third time in his career tonight. Only three other players have hit for the cycle three times. Oddly enough, all three of his cycles have come at Arlington (once for Seattle and twice for the Rangers). Pretty neat. I feel like the cycle should be more common than it is.

The craziest thing is that he completed it in the fifth inning. I can't imagine that's been done more than a couple times.

beltre is the only reason i dont 100% want to nuke the game of baseball

I'd argue this has been one of the better regular seasons of baseball in years.
