We talk a lot about the Trop and our opinions on domes and catwalks in the baseball world. My secret opinion that no one (except you, dear reader) is allowed to know is that I think it’s cool and fun. When Julio doinked that homer off the catwalk yesterday? That was awesome and funny. Unfortunely, nothing today was anywhere near as cool.
For starters, I haven’t seen a Miller get hit that hard since I went shooting with my alcoholic uncle. He only got shelaked for 5 Hard Hit Balls™ according to Savant, and he did get 7 strikeouts in 5 innings, but it just did not matter.
