That one stayed up a bit

 

[Bmurph]

Thanks Roogie, that was a terrible pick off attempt

Really wasn't a bad pitch.

 

[Bmurph]

Theres that DP, too bad they got a run 1st.

Meh....... just go get it back now

 

[romeo212000]

Well done, Perez. Mariners will be thinking they should've done more damage. Way to limit and get the ground ball you needed.

 

[Bmurph]

Really wasn't a bad pitch.

No I just think it was supposed to be a little further down and didnt quite have the bite the couple in the other AB did. Location was decent just up enough he got the bat on it

 

[romeo212000]

Desmond not a particularly patient hitter, is he?

 

[Bmurph]

Desmond you're killing me

 

[romeo212000]

Ugh. Odor just got underneath it.

 

[Bmurph]

Desmond not a particularly patient hitter, is he?

They say he's a first pitch swinger often. I haven't watched him enough to know how often.

Gonna make this a real quick inning for Iwakuma it appears

 

[Bmurph]

EA put the old lob wedge on that one

 

[Bmurph]

Cmon Robbie

 

[romeo212000]

Elvis, you're already killing me. That wasn't even close.

 

[Bmurph]

Elvis must not have gotten a good jump cause he was hosed and it wasn't close

 

[romeo212000]

Elvis just hasn't really been much of a base stealer lately, and stealing there was not the best strategy. No sense in starting the next inning with your 9th place hitter if you don't have to.

 

[romeo212000]

Come on Perez, you can't walk a hitter like Martin.

 

[DT LUNA]

Hate to see Leo walking

Its like he cant read a pitcher at all, he seems to never get a good jump. Plus like you said why start the inning w the #9 guy and what if Cheerio actually puts a good swing on one and hits it out there

He sure didnt do it often in a rangers uni

Absolutely! Didn't get that move at all.
