    He's not getting the vaccine as of now because he's a cancer survivor...and isn't sure how his immune system may handle it. I hope COVID goes ok for him.

    • MLB really nailed it for the Field of Dreams game. This was spectacular.

      • MLB and Fox couldn’t have scripted a better game than that. Yankees score four in the 9th to take an 8-7 lead before Tim Anderson walks it off with a two run bomb and circled the bases with a backdrop of cornfields and fireworks.

        • Everything I've seen from this game has been awful. Especially the fireworks at the end.

          • And here's why that surprised even me.

            I love kitsch. Target field is full of it and it's great.

            this game has been insufferably corporatized awful. I couldn't get into it. Part of the problem was Joe Buck. You need to get the oldest, best story teller on the radio to do this game. Cut the crowds by 80%. Get rid of all the boom boom gotta keep the kids attention nonsense.


            Actually, you know what would make this literally perfect? Do it every year, but no TV. You gotta go to see it.

                      • As likely the only Sox fan on the board, I'll just say I felt a wide range of emotions during the 9th. Agree the high degree of melodrama made the broadcast insufferable at times but personally I'll take Joe Buck over Jim Nantz every day and twice on Sunday.

                        And the Cubs still suck.

                            I think that definitely played a part of it for me.
