Now a rule book double because what the fuck is Tony Kemp doing in RF?
They're gonna get the cycle in reverse.
That was a Keuchel in April-May start to the game. I would not want to be near JV in the dugout right now.
The HR was one thing. But the triple and double should have been outs at this level. Frustrated I’m sure.
Is this just a day off for Reddick?
Man, this is brutal.
Get him some foam to step on.
Apparently JV was ejected after the 2nd for arguing balls/ strikes. He was likely coming out anyway and got his money's worth.
He was pretty streamed about the balk call, too, especially since they scored three runs after that.But I think I've figured out the strategy. It's a rope-a-dope, and we're trying to get their batters so tired that they'll be worthless for the weekend.
A balk call when you think you’ve picked off the runner to end the inning, then allow 3 more runs on 2 more homers, I’m pretty sure he got his money’s worth before departing. Umpires discretion and all, but did JV actually balk? I missed it.
What was the balk call all about? I was half watching and saw the pickoff and then later was completely confused by the unexpected results.
He didn’t step ahead of the throw. Easy call.
It's The Jake and Tony Show.
Paxton's pretty good.
He was going to second, right? I don't understand what you mean by step ahead.I'll look at it later but I just don't understand your description.
Yes, he absolutely balked, clear as day. That’s no excuse for the runs that followed.
Hanigar is 3-3 in 1st ML start. Enough.
JD Davis does not belong on a major league roster.
It's his first time batting leadoff.
Kemp gives this team some really solid ABsSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That was a shockingly poor AB for Bregman. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Yuli isn't making Yuli-type contact.
Damn. Reddick gets some tough calls against him consistently. 1-0 was a joke.
Worst ball/strike call of the night.
If we’re going to PH for JD to avoid him facing Vincent and to set up a lefty-lefty match-up, maybe it’s time to send him down.
Damn. Max hit it right on the screws.
Jake put his head down and was digging immediately.
A couple of runs would be nice.
Ok, Alex. Let's try this again.
Oof.0-4 with RISP for Bregman.
Trying to carry the team....
Everyone in the pen not named Harris pitched well.
Frustrating loss. Tied for worst is JV’s start and 2nd and 3rd no out w top of the order and ZERO RUNS. Ugh.
Yeah, Bregman in particular had a rough night. He’s been carrying this team for a while though so not much you can say. Honestly, he was probably due to cool off a little. We need Yuli to step up and we especially need Correa to come back tomorrow night and play with his hair on fire. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Hinch said in post game interview they optioned Davis to AAA in anticipation of activating Correa tomorrow.
That’s a big negative ghost rider.
He was obviously lurking in the GZ.
I like to think he heard me yelling "Please, No more JD!" at some point last night while watching the game.
