Who Owned Baseball – July 7, 2019 (Daily #MLB AL/NL Pitcher + Hitter MVPs) + 2019
Let’s see owned baseball on July 7, 2019
Earning Full WOBs:
Greg Allen homered, tripled and added a pair of singles, to help the Indians clobber Cincinnati, 11-1.
Jay Bruce went 3 for 4 with 2 homers to slug the Phillies past the Mets, 8-3.
Trevor Bauer threw 7 strong innings, allowing 1 run and striking out 9 to lead Cleveland past Cincinnati, 11-1.
Patrick Corbin threw 7 shutout innings, striking out 11 Royals en route to a 5-2 Washington victory.
Earning 1/2 WOBs:
Jesus Aguilar went 3 for 4 with 2 homers but the Pirates edged the Brewers, 6-5.
Jack Flaherty took a no hitter into the 7th. A solo homer would break up the no no and would be his undoing as St. Louis was blanked by the Giants, 1-0.
Jakob Junis threw 7 strong innings, allowing 5 hits and 2 runs while striking out 6 Nationals. The Kansas City bullpen would blow the 5-2 game.
Omar Narvaez homered twice and singled twice, driving in 4, but the Mariners came up short against Oakland, 7-4.

Who Owns October (#WOO) Tallies Updated For October 19, 2018
As the Red Sox kick their feet up, relaxing from their pennant clinching yesterday, the NLCS is down to a Game 7. I guess it is appropriate after the regular season ended with a pair of Game 163 match ups that the National League title is undecided until the last possible moment.
The Dodgers homered in the opening batter, making Milwaukee wonder if they were done. 4 runs in the first changed all of that.
So thanks to Jesús Aguilar and company, the National League will be decided on Saturday. And Corbin Burnes made sure Josh Hader is rested and ready for Game 7.
So who owned October?
Each winning team for every post season game gets a pitcher and a hitter who earn a full WOO (Who Owns October.)
And at my discretion, I award a 1/2 WOO’S to a worthy player on the losing team.
At the end of the post season, we will see who had the highest WOO total as a pitcher and a hitter.
A complete description of the rules can be found HERE.
From October 19, 2018
