India regularly stands on the steps of the dugout to watch his teammates' plate apps. When he pinch hit for Votto in the last inning, Votto swapped places with him and stood on the top of the dugout steps to cheer on his teammate. Interesting juxtaposition.

Reflecting upon last night...lost in the much-deserved accolades that Aristides is receiving is the quiet “redemption” of Sonny Gray. In addition to how great he’s been this year, he’s done it with class. I personally find his 2019 story fascinating and gratifying. #ComebackPOY
