Series Thread: At Braves

[NWinAZ]

Let me get it started you bunch of slackers.

 

[NWinAZ]

Ramirez.....wow!!!!! It looks like we have another candidate for Tacoma pen like Maurer.

If we lose the game, that 6th inning will be the reason why...or the 1st...or the 3rd. One clutch hit by Romero and nothing else. Even the $240M man had a weak swing on a 1-0 pitch with them loaded and 2 outs.

Busy day at work, couldnt get one started. From what I have heard the offense has screwed up 3 situation s with a guy on 3rd and one out.

Oh and Ramirez is awesome. Tajuans start for Tacoma has been bumpy so I doubt he's ready to be up in 5 days.

Good start to this tough month.

Feels the Mariners stole a game they had no business winning but Ill take it. Seen the opposite end of the spectrum on that to many times in recent years.

 

[Itsmytime]

That makes no sense... They scored more runs but had no business winning?

 

[Logicallylethal]

I give up trying to assess this team.

When it looks like they're getting it turned around we hit a losing streak and don't score for like 2 games. Then when it looks like we're the worst team in baseball we hit a winning streak against some of the best teams in baseball.

Seattle seems to play better ball against the better teams .

They may have pulled one out of thier ass... But a win is a win

Usually when you starter gets beat up, only goes three innings and you squander many scoring chances you dont win very often. They didnt play there best today but thankfully got a stellar effort from the bullpen and a couple of timely homers. Typically the margin for error isnt near as big as it was today.

Beyond anything else, this is the most frustrating part of watching the team.

 

[NWinAZ]

No, I thought the same thing and in fact I turned off the recording of it until I read we scored and made it 4-2. Even after tying it I thought we gave up so many opportunities that we didn't deserve it, but I give them total credit for fighting back.

No business winning, but mad credit for doing it because winning in that rotation spot hasn't been seen very often.

I gotcha. But lets be honest, the Braves starter got hammered just as much as Ramirez. Just took a bit longer to do so.

12pm start today on the east coast. this will kill a few hours at work...

Good old arrogant umpires. Pitch starts below the knees and breaks just over the dirt and he calls it a strike. Lloyd chirps from the dugout and he yells back "it ain't low!"

Can't get much lower, bud.

 

[Tapey]

This home plate umpire is really shitty.

 

[Podunkparte]

I get that you can get some bench players some playing time on games like these but I really truly hate when managers choose a game to give them all a spot in the lineup. Bloomquist, Romero, Chavez, and Gillespie gives me no hope even though we're up and Kuma is dealing.

 

[EVille3]

Cano is really not coming up with any hits with RISP this series...smh

Well that last one deserved to be a hit and rbi. Just got unlucky and hit it right at the 1 guy on that side of the field.

 

[hokiehi21]

Nice series sweep, Mariners.

 

[Podunkparte]

5 game winning streak with an off day and no 5th starter spot coming up. Plus, we don't have to play Oakland!
