That is nasty. Shame that it went wild.

nah, that's gotta be a passed ball (even if the official scorekeeper hosed it up and didn't score it as one)

Or just a strike depending on the count.

a passed ball can still be a strike

Right but if the count is less than 2 strikes, isn't it just recorded as a swinging strike?

if there are runners on and they advance yeah, I think if nothing happens on the play then neither a passed ball nor wild pitch are recorded

Thanks man!

It's not a super-aggressive Bautista bat flip (which is more of a bat throw) or whatever, but the Cubs don't really do those. For comparison, Bryant gingerly places his bat on the ground, and what Baez does (the bat "dismissal" and casual turn) is the closest thing we get to a "flip." Contreras was also doing some fun bat tosses too before going on the DL. I tried doing this on my own with giphy; take a look at this one:

That's actually a bat flip though because he actively flips the bat as opposed to just dropping it. Watch their arms.

I'm pretending that Strop thought he crushed it out, and that Cutch is incredulous at the bat drop. Strop cares not, lowers his head and rounds the bases anyway as Cutch tosses the ball into the stands while wondering what the Hell Strop is doing..

That actually looks like what's going on actually.

I should note I watched that happen from the stands out in CF and we all thought it hit Kiermaier in the face.

That point and his little "drat that was fast" toss after Chapman threw a 104 mph game-ending strike the other night is why Gary is the best.

It's worth noting that the guns at Yankee Stadium had Bartolo topping 90mph so it's safe to say they're a little hot.
