HOLY SHIT IS HE HOT!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

ACUNA!!!!

DANSBY TOO!!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

I will give him credit for only giving up 1 and getting out of bases loaded 0 outs.

I flipped over to the Phillies-Red Sox game on MLB Network and missed it.

 

[Mistaken4193]

HIS NAME IS BIG RON AND HE HITS DINGERS!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

Dansby deserved that hit. He's been hitting into a lot of bad luck lately. Hopefully that gets him going.

Yeah,I missed Freddies homer watching it. How did Santana not beat that out??

 

[Chewbaccer]

I think that's the first true oppo homer other than that popup in Yankee Stadium that isn't a homer anywhere else.

If he starts having foul pole to foul pole power, he might be a legit MVP candidate next season.

The Phillies are the worst defensive and worst baserunning team in the NL.

Their offense sucks. Really good pitching staff though.

 

[Mistaken4193]

He Swung. Thats Bullshit.

Acuna with 6 Homeruns in last 5 games and 8 in last 8 games. Amazing

 

[Mistaken4193]

He's not quite 2012 Venters but he is still pretty damn good.

 

[Mistaken4193]

 

[gobigred]

Also 2nd person ever in modern era to hit 3 straight leadoff homeruns

 

[Chewbaccer]

Why use Minter here?

He had a total of one day off, and closers are notorious for not being as effective in non save situations.

 

[Mistaken4193]

You know...I would bet my next paycheck the first pitch tommorow to Acuna wont be a Fastball.

If I'm facing home, I'm bouncing one.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Nice Win. 2 Game Lead.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Pitching wasn't pretty. but the offense sure was and a win is a win.

Again, props to Touki and Folty for both saving the bullpen yesterday.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Nats down 6-1. If they lose, they're 8 games back.
