Game Thread: 9/3 First @ First With First on the line

I guess Disco isn't dead!

Yes, news of his demise may have been a bit premature.

He's got a decent track record. He was awful in 2020, but slightly above average in most of his other seasons.

Watson, magic man. Looks great in orange and black

 

[Stokes1931]

The Rivercats just threw a combined no-hitter, pretty impressive in the league formerly known as the PCL.

Gudino pitched 4 innings, with 9 K's
Menez pitched 3 innings with 3 K's
Cyr pitched 1 inning with 1 K
Gott pitched 1 inning with 2 K's

Just once I'd like to see TRog go overhand at 95.... kinda like a poke to the weak side of a shift. Keep 'im honest

 

[stanford the manford]

Really can't complain about Trigger's results in the 8th. Add a run or two and shut 'em down.

mvp..mvp..mvp - that's what i'm hearing from my office

Man, Yaz is in a serious tailspin. Is he hurt? Or has the league figured him out? If they have, will he be a Giant next year? 21 homers is impressive, but he is heading rapidly towards the Tachman Line.

 

[Stokes1931]

2-13

 

[stanford the manford]

Can't say I'm not nervous

 

[Stokes1931]

A one run lead will have to do, yeah?

tzill must be ecstatic about this game. As are all his alts.

 

[Stokes1931]

Two more outs

 

[stanford the manford]

damn.. damn.. damn

 

[Stokes1931]

One more out.

 

[stanford the manford]

this should have been over dammit

 

[Stokes1931]

It would have been nice to hit with RISP

It would have been nice to have a reliable closer

 

[msgkings322]

Ugh

.....more torture

 

[Stokes1931]

Well, only a BS

Time to score a run in the bottom of the 9th to walk it off!

A leadoff homer would do nicely.

 

[Stokes1931]

Ruf leads off with a walk.

Whatever happens, do NOT let him get into scoring position!

 

[stanford the manford]

Been a long time, was it worse with BWezzy?

 

[Stokes1931]

Come on, BB9, hit one in the Cove and let's call it a night.
