weather delays suck ... but this happened - https://www.si.com/mlb/guardians/news/what-the-guardians-about-the-james-karinchak-foreign-substance-check
Baldelli goes with some gamesmanship tactics (he swings and MISSES)
there should be a cost of some sort - at the games level, like a replay request - revoked if you challenge like he did,
and was wrong?

That was great !
.
.......Credit to Karinchak, who usually has a wild presence on the mound, calmly walked to the umpire, complied with the check, and carried on after the umpire gave him the all-clear.
As for Rocco on the other hand, it must be pretty embarrassing to challenge an opposing pitcher for cheating only to be wrong. .....
Nice call Rocco. Moving right along thank goodness the Guardians have future HOF manager Tito Francona.

I saw that Hedges interview after the game, I'm sure that feeling radiates through 100% of the team. Also why Tito Francona is the best manager in MLB !
“Sometimes things don't go your way,” Guardians catcher Austin Hedges said, “and when you have a leader up top that has your back, those are the situations where you’ve got to go to war, and sometimes it doesn't look good. It's nice to know that he has our back and when things don't go our way, he's going to go stick up for us.”

It's getting to the point that if the G's can go .500, it will be tough for the Pale Hose or Twins to catch them.
But.... there's a decent amount of head-to-head matchups left.

Well this is the first time in 2022 that I can put up all of the games from today's game 9/15 until the last game 10/5. It boils down to beating MIN and KC with the last 9 games at home the last 6 versus lowly KC. Not NYY, TOR, HOU, SEA but as I've said before..... "win against KC"...... and you can control your own destiny. Even .500+ versus MIN would be nice.
Check it out for yourself. Sometimes it's hard to be the top dog and everyone is chasing you. One more ? key in this Tito Francona.

~ Thursday, make up game. My brother Tom will be there behind the home dugout seating. ~
Game 142 - Thu Sep 15 - CSX (73-69 .514) at CLE (75-65 .536) at 1:10 pm. Some matchup !

.... CSX 3-0. top 2. CSX gets 2 HRs off of Gaddis after a 1-2-3 1st inning.
..... CSX. 6-1. top 5. CSX now 6 runs on 5 HRs off of Gaddis....still in the game.
.... CSX 7-1 still top 5. Gaddis out, save the BP, they did. I'll have to ask my brother on this game.
.... CSX. 7-2 top 9. A slow game. CSX homerun Derby early vs Gaddis. Bullpen was fine. MIN next.
...x,,, CSX 7-2 final. Like the old saying if you were going to lose one this is it. Next 5 with MIN.
See you Friday at 7:10 vs MIN and McKenzie to bounce back. Good afternoon everyone.

That pretty much put the final nails into the Twins coffin.
They had a great chance to get back into first place a week and a half ago, with eight head-to-head games vs the Guardians, but then they lose the first six.
The G's still have the White Sox to contend with. Three games in Chicago coming up next.
