Keuchel struggling in the first again.

Down by 3 now with one out and runners on the corner.

The return of “good Keuchel” certainly was a fleeting moment.

Four hits against Dallas exceeded an exit velocity of 101 in the top of the 1st, probably because of the shift.

Gattis missed a 3 run homer by a couple feet and settles for a double that drives in 2.

Keuchel pitches now have the movement that was absent in the first. Easy peasy 1-2-3 inning.

It's a fuckin' mystery.

Please, let there be a nagging back or neck issue that will benefit from some DL time. 

Because otherwise he seems like the type of mess that won't get sorted out this season.

Four hits against Dallas exceeded an exit velocity of 101 in the top of the 1st, probably because of the shift.

Catcher was set up inside, where the first two were,  but it was out over the plate. You could see Maile drop his head. Tepera not only missed his spot, he practically hit the bat with the pitch.

That was a fastball. He just got it too low. Bregman said he had to get on top of the ball, and he raised his hands on the pitch.
