Anybody else's YTTV not showing the ABC game? Never came on yesterday and not on the guide today. I guess Kelly Clarkson pulled rank on MLB. Or is this just me?

My ABC affiliate didn't air it yesterday. They put it off on one of their other locally owned networks.

Had the same issue. Watched it on ESPN+. Our local ABC affiliate sucks.

Well from the looks of it, we should not have to worry about this problem tomorrow.

As much as I hate the Rangers, a part of me enjoys seeing the Rays get slapped down. They can’t even draw 20K for a playoff game, but we keep hearing about how innovative they are. Yet, they have one fake World Series appearance in 2020 as the only recent thing to show for the revenue sharing money they keep collecting.

They’re this generation’s 2000s A’s, and we’re all supposed to root for them and marvel at what they do with “limited resources.” Then they’re going to turn around a build a stadium at the same site when they can’t draw flies there in the first place. Yes, by all accounts, the stadium sucks but the site is as much of the problem as the stadium because of the difficulty of getting to the stadium.

The better play would be for the Rays to move.

Yeah I hate the underdog narrative when the reality is that the owner just refuses to spend.

Yeah, I’ve never understood why I’m supposed to root for a team with a shitty stadium and fan base.

I watched her Tweet (is it called an X now?) and she was all about how their celebration was very subdued. They are all butthurt about McTaggert's call out about their after party. She went after McTaggert and is shocked that Astro fans are coming after her. I think the Rangers celebrated a bit more than they let on and are trying to convince people they really didn't. Why do people read DMs from folks they don't know? I wouldn't.

That was one tough dude. I still remember that beach photo of the squad… his ribs we littered with baseball bruises.

One of life's great mysteries is the 2019 Astros not winning a title. I hate Minute Maid Park.

Seems so weird seeing Conger and Correa in Twins gear.

I loved Chirinos. He had a very nice year in 19. Then Maldy took over for good
