Title: Our aces
Post by: JimR on August 19, 2019, 09:15:07 am
JV and Greinke were stoppers in the Oakland series.  It is a shame the offense  could not get the big hit in JV’s game.

Greinke pitched like the veteran he is yesterday.  They needed a pick me up in the worst way, and he went out and showed 'em how you methodically take care of business.

JV struck out 11 and walked zero.  Damn shame the bats were so limp.

Grienke was sweet to watch.   That was his 200th career victory.

Ditto re JV’s game. Our hitting stars did not come through.

I'm amazed at how quickly Greinke gets to the third base line to field a swinging bunt.

Zack Greinke, 87mph Fastball and 88mph Changeup.

Remember:  It's Zack Greinke.  It doesn't have to make sense. https://t.co/9jcG3Tnu8H

Greinke was amazed how fast Correa’s throw got to him

"Shit, he throws harder than me."

Isn't Greinke multiple GGlove like Keuchel?

Five of them, assuming Kalas knows what he's talking about.
