- Maybe this partially explains Guillermo Heredia’s second half struggles?
Heredia has been dealing with a bad right shoulder for some time now, good chance he will not play rest of the way.

- Ex-Mariners news, but hey it’s Dae-Ho Lee slappin’ a dinger, batflipping, and then just kinda dropping his hands like that ball had deeply disappointed him. He’s not mad, just disappointed, Mr. Ball. That’s why you had to go over the fence, to think about what you’ve done.
Dae-Ho Lee (Lotte Giants) just hit a big go-ahead HR to make it 8-7 Giants on a crucial pennant race game. Enjoy the bat flip as well. #KBO pic.twitter.com/uBmiT1CbPT
