Summary

The Oakland A’s have taken the first two games in their series against the Atlanta Braves and Dallas is letting Joey have it. Dallas is also letting Ben Verlander have it after taking exception to Ben’s tweet about a young A’s fan running on the field. The A’s have won two straight and Dallas is coming out swinging. Other topics include Elly De La Cruz hitting a walk-off moonshot, Doug Mientkiewicz coming after ARod, the home run race between Judge and Alonso, the Padres broadcast situation, Ethan Salas playing in the minors as a 16-year-old, and more!
