An insane night last night which brought back 2017-2019 level flashbacks on the amount of home runs which were being drilled out of stadiums. Reducing the spin rates on baseballs via the sticky stuff was not going to correlate as strongly into a HR boost as you saw last night. Reducing the spin rates simply should have put the ball in play more and all we saw last night was balls barely hitting the bat leave the park. I love Juan Soto and believe he is the best hitter in Baseball, but his first home run was even crazy by his standards how he barely flipped the bat out there and took it opposite field. I’ve had far bigger conspiracy...
