Scoreless first inning. For Soroka. 2 singles, but neither hit particularly hard, and all 3 outs on the ground.

Good start.

 

[Chewbaccer]

He's safe, but these reviews never go our way.

He's safe, but these reviews never go our way.

What do you know, another wrong call against us stands.

What else is new?

 

[Chewbaccer]

Damn. Aggression cost us an out there, but with all the runs the aggression has got us, it's hard to complain. You're active on the base paths, you're gonna run into some outs along the way, and I'm ok with that.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Can't think of a better player to get your first career strikeout against.

We're paying Gonzalez handsomely to play first base for the Mets.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Great play by Freddie. Saved a double.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Albert Pujols and a couple of catchers might be the only other hitters in the league where a double play is possible on the ball.

Nice escape job by Soroka. Frazier's hit was a soft little flare that Dansby would have caught if he was a half inch taller.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Regardless of what happens the rest of the game, Soroka has impressed me tonight and far exceeded my expectations.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Soroka has done well.

 

[Mistaken4193]

His dad looks like the warden from Shawshank redemption...

 

[Chewbaccer]

I guess they're required to do it, but Soroka's dad wasn't a good interview.

 

[Mistaken4193]

FUCKING JOE JYNXES HIM!!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

Every bad pitch has been to Cespedes.

Nothing wrong with giving up a solo shot though.

 

[tabascojet]

and the chewy vs chewy streak ends at 12.......

 

[Chewbaccer]

I'd assume that's Soroka's last inning, but what a great debut.

My favorite part:

Zero walks.

Only real blemish was that solo shot.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Love the aggresiveness...but probably not a good idea to test Cespedes

 

[Chewbaccer]

Damn. Catcher's speed.

 

[tabascojet]

Damn. Catcher's speed.

he's no sid bream......

 

[Chewbaccer]

Love the aggresiveness...but probably not a good idea to test Cespedes

Not with Suzuki running.

Albies, Acuna, Inciarte or Swanson, you make him make a good throw every time though.

 

[Mistaken4193]

Reitsma sucked. Had a good changeup to leftys that was near unhittable...but he sucked.
