Series Thread: Let The Wild Card Battle Royal Begin vs. Kansas City July 14-16

[Nightcrawler]

Looks like an old fashioned pitchers duel tonight. Which could come down to..... you guessed it.... the beleaguered bullpen.

 

[DT LUNA]

Real nice Leclerc. 4 pitch walk.

CLAUDIO
WIN

 

[Nightcrawler]

Good start to the road trip.

 

[DT LUNA]

Well pitched game for neither pitcher to get a win.

Thought for sure the BP was gonna blow that one.

Cole has a pretty good scoreless inning streak going.

The Washington Nationals are acquiring left-handed reliever Sean Doolittle and right-handed reliever Ryan Madson from the Oakland Athletics for right-hander Blake Treinen and two prospects.

The prospects headed to the Athletics are left-hander Jesus Luzardo and third baseman Sheldon Neuse.

Although I agree with scoring that a WP, I also think Lucroy should have moved over better to block the ball since there was a guy on 3rd.

I've been having some concerns with Yu's command lately.

Robinson tatter and we're tied.

And I ask again, why is Kozma still on this team?

 

[Duane1952]

Robinson with a blast.

Careful, your talking about Eph's favorite player.

I knew Pete had two really big fans. His mom, and someone else.

8 pitch walk to Moustakas, and this is what makes me so crazy about Darvish and his approach.

Guy has an incredible array of pitches, yet insists on pitching himself into trouble, damn near every game.....And yes I know we don't score for crap when he pitches.

But still, go out and challenge the other team to hit you by throwing strikes PLEASE.

 

[Duane1952]

And a another walk scores.
