1637650216303349762 | @Howard_Cole The umps blew his chance by calling him out on a bogus check swing | 0 |
1637649832092516352 | @Howard_Cole @SportsNetLA Have been thinking the same thing. We can argue about pitch clocks or not but as a television viewer, the specific count on the clock is of very little value and a waste of screen real estate. Also slightly distracting and poor quality. | 0 |
1637642034810089472 | @Howard_Cole a car for Turner if he hits s 3rd? | 0 |
1637627757357338625 | @Stink_Eye @Howard_Cole @SportsNetLA Part of that is the batters. How many times do batters reset their gloves (Cody Bellinger looking at you) or squat it out (Juan Soto - you look like you’re pooping up there) before ready to take a pitch. | 0 |
1637627165943697409 | @Howard_Cole @SportsNetLA I think what we have seen over Spring Training is that the bigger bags and the Pitch Clock (at least with the current settings) do not work. Currently have lost 2 players to knee surgeries run & slides to bases. Changing distance between bases & size of base not helping. | 0 |

1637603765539987457 | Memo to the Dodgers. Hey! Maybe we should sign Trea Turner for this season. Oh wait! Never mind! @Howard_Cole | 0 |

1637453291604029446 | @Howard_Cole @RealJoshReddick baseball skill set retired on him years ago. All he was doing since was stealing money and enabling shenanigans that help cheat a WS ring the Asterisks way. #JustSaying | 6 |
1636676129049427969 | @Howard_Cole I feel like I’ve seen this before. The vet gets April to show he has anything left. The kid gets sent down. Vet hits .120 and gets released. Kid gets the call in May. | 6 |
1636777487530180617 | @Howard_Cole As a Cubs fan I do not miss the annual: “no really this time his swing is fixed” talk | 5 |
