It was a moon shot, high and barely far enough. Jung is the 2nd Ranger to homer in the first PA. The other is Jurikson Profar.

The announcer's pronunciation of his name seems to have changed. It used to be German-style--yoong--but now they pronounce it yung.

however you pronounce his name, he just hit another homer

[revo]

He should either go by Josh Jung (hard J) or Yosh Young. Or screw with everybody and came out and say the real pronunciation is "Yosh Jung"

Or make the J's silent.

Careful what you wish for, we'll just make your G's silent and you'll be re.

His plate discipline has absolutely cratered this year. Yes, he had a long layoff, but he still has 126 PAs between AAA/MLB, and only 4 walks all year. Against 41 Ks. That's a recipe for some Torkelsonness, which is a disease I'd like to not repeat next year on my teams.

Outstanding!

I have actually said these words. My name is Ray the G's are silent.

[revo]

Or make the J's silent.

LOL, Osh Ung.

[madducks]

The Rangers hire Bruce Bochy as manager.

[onejayhawk]

Could be worse. The list of recently fired managers is frightening.

And your MLB RBI leader is ... Adolis Garcia! Epic day today: 5-5, 3 HR, 8 RBI, 5 R. Now 28 RBI.

Rangers have been very good so far. They lead the AL West and after tonite's 18-3 drubbing of the hapless A's, they are 13-7 and tied for the 2nd best record in the AL with ... the O's!
