GDT Rattlers vs World Champs, 8/3

Beltran also swung at ball 4...Marquis seemed to be pitching around him with O-Cab providing 'protection' behind him.

And so it goes...

Yeah. Rare for him. He came in and immediately has the best understanding of the strike zone on the team (with Buster out... and I know that isn't saying much).

 

[Heathbar012]

Whoa. Big time squeezed! The rook getting the benefit!

 

[Heathbar012]

GiDP. Let's see it, Mr. Ransom!

no shit, it looked right down the pipe

 

[Heathbar012]

no shit, it looked right down the pipe

Ransom might've gotten away with one, too.

 

[Heathbar012]

If this ump remains consistent with his zone, it will probably hurt Marquis more than Voges, but a higher zone definitely hurts both of them.

 

[Heathbar012]

Well, at least he is consistent. Sorry, sinker ball pitcher. Not your zone today.

 

[Heathbar012]

I'm glad Huff got a hit, but I wish he wouldn't always try to pull that low, outside pitch. Oh, well. Gift horses and all that.

 

[msgkings322]

We are fucking cursed right now.

 

[Heathbar012]

P.S. I guess O.C. just found out how good of an outfielder Justin Upton is. Was he not paying attention last night?

 

[BeerMe]

We are fucking cursed right now.

I feel the same way.

 

[Heathbar012]

We are fucking cursed right now.

Luckily, Marquis cannot get that low strike called. Voges can't either, but that's a different issue. Playing right into Cody's hands.

 

[Heathbar012]

Anything but a double play, Eli! Please...

How it found a hole, I dunno. Looked like an easy double play ball

 

[Heathbar012]

Rarely happy to see a pop-out with two runners on, but given the alternative...

 

[Heathbar012]

Make him work, Voges!

 

[gp956]

Make-up Call? vSong vs. Goldshmidt

With our curse and the pitcher up, didn't really matter anyway.
