I am concerned seeing Herk in there...

Game's first hit by Herk

 

[1phlapdown]

Here we go 2 on no outs for Gerald...

Bupkis.

Next up Craw...with a sac fly, small ball!

 

[calsnowskier]

Good ab by MVP. LOVED the faux bunt. That is some next-level shit right there.

And he gets a oroductive out while eating a shit-ton of pitches.

His numbers may not be great, but he is still having a nice season.

 

[LHG]

Greinke close to 70 pitches and in the 3rd inning. Its just a matter of time before we get to him, right?

I want more than 1, but the way JC is tossing tonight, I consider 1 "getting to him"...

 

[calsnowskier]

Damn.

I was hoping to talk about JCs chances for a complete game...

 

[1phlapdown]

uh oh

 

[LHG]

Damn.

How many games have we seen like this in the past month and half, where our starter is looking nails and the other pitcher is shaky (or slightly less nails) and then, suddenly, our guy "blows up"?

 

[msgkings322]

It happens. The ace gets shelled. It just stings more when it's late in the year, in a penannt race.

 

[msgkings322]

Still some time left

 

[Stokes1931]

Sigh

First game of a series post-ASB

Game over at 4-1?

 

[msgkings322]

Personally, when you shit the bed like we just did you sort of have to get at least 1 run back to stay in it emotionally. If they don't, it's hard to see a win. Then again I'm sure they do that all the time so what do I know.

I just want a run here.

 

[Stokes1931]

Very quiet 8 pitch inning by the bats after the Snakes score 4. No hitter the rest of the way...

Would have been nice. Weak bats.

I can't see Grnke going more than one more though.

 

[msgkings322]

If we keep giving him 3 outs on 8 pitches he will

 

[calsnowskier]

I am sitting here watching the game, but also doing other things.

I did not leave the room, but I COMPLETELY missed the bottom of the 5th. I looked up and saw the snakes hitting again, and I was like "wtf? Aren't we supposed to be up?"

 

[calsnowskier]

Belt has to fight the shift. I know he gets an occasional double that scores a run a two, but he has to be getting killed by it.
