[tzill]

Tommy Stars...no bueno today.

 

[tzill]

Harrrrleeeen in.

 

[tzill]

Feeling poopy...gonna do some work and come back.

 

[tzill]

rough game for the hitters...hope we can get a second clean inning out of Haaarleen

 

[tzill]

Nope, Leone in.

 

[stanford the manford]

sure be nice to have more than a 1 run lead going into the 9th

 

[msgkings322]

Ah shit. Literally the best bullpen game all year until the 9th

Need a K and a DP

 

[stanford the manford]

and as soon as i type, mutts have men on the corners no out ... torture baby

crap, tied it up

need to petition manfred to reduce games to 8 innings - all in the interest of attracting new fans of course

 

[msgkings322]

If we get out of this with just that run it's still pretty stellar pen work. No run support, 1 run given up in 7.2 innings.

According to GameDay... all McGee is throwing are 4 seam fastballs. If that's correct .. they are just sitting on it ...

 

[msgkings322]

That was still pretty good pitching from McGee...he gave up the run so he could get the win in the 9th

That Crawford guy is pretty good.

 

[stanford the manford]

That Crawford guy is pretty good.

he's got a future to be sure

 

[SF11704]

Again ... according to GameDay... he only threw 2 sliders in the last 14 pitches. The question is.... is he shaking off pitches or are they what is being called for?

 

[stanford the manford]

ok yaz, break out and end this thing

His last 14 pitches were his best ones so

Yaz is really struggling...good thing we have a lineup strong enough where he can bat 7th or 8th

 

[msgkings322]

GREAT play by Watson

 

[msgkings322]

And another GREAT play by Wade
