We will always glorify the players, teams and even coaches in Sports but if you are near my age (42) then there is nobody more crucial to us loving Sports and games than those who are broadcasting them. Vin Scully was an icon larger than any player, team or manager in Sports. He spanned so many decades and I was sad when he had to retire and with his passing it only brings back many great memories of listening to him as a kid falling asleep in my room or as an adult falling asleep watching Kershaw push me up the DFS leaderboard. Whether Vin was telling his famous stories like the Bumgarner snake, talking about Socrates Brito, Baseball players Beards, or obviously his dozens of iconic calls, he made you feel joy and love for the game and he could make anything sound like it was the greatest thing you ever heard. I can only imagine how he would have explained The Dongers Club Chairman on National TV. WEATHER All games play.

I cannot forsee a scenario where Oakland pulls a Seattle off him and don’t think he is going to have a bad outing. So this slate is entirely about finding a second pitcher and the juice which has come into San Diego should propell Blake Snell at $7,900 to beat up a Rockies lineup which is quiet and not very problematic for the Padres sometimes problematic lefty. James Kaprielian is going to bring back the SP vs Angels memories tonight as well, so he is worthy of game stacking with Ohtani.

Milwaukee is very close to them and if they can get their hits with men on base tonight I would imagine we see them put up a 7 or 8 spot on the Pirates.
