On today’s BD Baseball, I’m running through the June 22 MLB slate from my usual emotionally compromised A’s/Rockies/Tigers point of view.The A’s were off, which honestly felt like a little break from the chaos. But the Tigers gave me something real to talk about, beating the Yankees 5-3 behind a strong Framber Valdez start, a Riley Greene homer, and enough offense to knock Gerrit Cole around. Then the Rockies decided to do Rockies stuff — down 2-0 in the ninth, looking dead, and Jake McCarthy walks it off with a triple to beat the Red Sox 3-2 at Coors.Around the league, it wasn’t exactly a fireworks show. Pitchers were dealing everywhere. Brandon Woodruff flirted with perfection for Milwaukee, Michael King blanked the Braves, Kyle Bradish shoved for Baltimore, Michael Wacha gave Kansas City seven strong, and a bunch of games turned into low-scoring knife fights.I also hit the rest of the slate, look ahead to today’s games, complain about some pitching matchups, talk All-Star voting, and remind everybody that Nick Kurtz deserves a whole lot more love.BD Baseball — A’s pain, Rockies chaos, Tigers optimism, and a full MLB rundown without pretending I’m not biased.Bullet NotesA’s were off, which may have been the healthiest thing for meTigers beat the Yankees 5-3Framber Valdez outduels Gerrit ColeRiley Greene homers, Tigers lineup gets to ColeRockies walk off the Red Sox 3-2 at CoorsJake McCarthy clears the bases with a ninth-inning walk-off tripleBrandon Woodruff takes a perfect game into the sixthBrewers win a 10-inning pitcher’s duelPadres blank the Braves 1-0Kyle Bradish dominates the AngelsWhite Sox walk off ClevelandFull June 22 MLB rundownJune 23 MLB previewNick Kurtz needs All-Star votesA’s-Giants Bay Area Classic previewLearn more about your ad choices.
