Good job, catchers

CrimsonCowboy · 2025-07-18T20:12:26-0400

That was a Dave Parker or Ichiro type of throw

Enscheff · 2025-07-18T20:12:52-0400

It’s nice when Albies does literally the only thing he can do now.

bravesfanMatt · 2025-07-18T20:13:11-0400

Man. Walked away and strider walks a few and Acuna loads the bazooka

Uh oh. Little king crushed that

Ichiro had a laser. But that was from the stands on the fly right on the money. Crazy throw.

This is gonna be an epic playoff run

thewupk · 2025-07-18T20:18:08-0400

The fact that Acuna was flat footed with no momentum. That rivals Bo Jackson's throw.

I wish Strider could figure out how to be a bit more efficient and throw fewer pitches.

Best throw I’ve ever witnessed live.

The Yankees broadcasters are going nuts. They are still talking about it

I mean it's the best one your gonna see this year. It will be on his highlight reel when he's retired.

He's not going to retire

And, unlike Bo Jackson's throw, we can actually see all of it

Hudson2 · 2025-07-18T20:40:32-0400

Extend Ronald asap.

msstate7 · 2025-07-18T20:40:50-0400

Looking at the weekend matchups, and damn, the Yankees have big time starting issues too

bravesfanMatt · 2025-07-18T20:40:59-0400

Might be a good time for White to sub Acuna.

Enscheff · 2025-07-18T20:43:55-0400

Remember that time a guy was coming back from an elbow surgery and the team was up by 7 runs? Did the genius manager extend the pitch count, or did he get him out of there around 80 pitches?

thewupk · 2025-07-18T20:46:05-0400

Strider's velo is going down. He should be done after this inning.

WaitingFor2017 · 2025-07-18T20:47:05-0400

Snit's gonna get 1 more out of Strider. We all know this.

I agree, but man, with no starters, this decision is harder.

No it isn’t.
