— Hey, at least Bautista homered again, I guess?
– The Yankees had 18 hits today. None of them were home runs.
– Inside-the-park home run for Evan Longoria.
— Home run, period, for Dan Uggla. Bizarro YCPB.
— James Loney grand slam.
—- That last one was off Ubaldo, to boot.
—– The Rockies scored eight runs against the Dodgers and lost.

— And lost anyway. Okay, okay, sometimes you can predict baseball.
– In the Reds/Giants game, Andres Torres got caught stealing. Then, Miguel Tejada promptly stole a base.

—- They won.

— Francisco Liriano took another no-hitter into the eighth inning today – after already having a no-hitter this year, in what’s been an overall terrible year for him.
— It ended after a… 35-minute offensive explosion by the Twins.
—- Since June 1, the Twins have gained 7.5 games on the Indians. They’re still nine games back.
You Can't Predict Baseball 
Bautista is an animal — he is really tearing it up this year.
