[filosofy29]

Who is this in the tv booth with Flem?

Randy Wynn I think

Randy Wynn I think

Yes

 

[calsnowskier]

Yup…. Randy Winn. Flem just referred to him by name.


We have sooooo many people in the booth this year. Hard to keep track. Understandable, though, with both K&K having somewhat serious health issues and Flem getting a lot of National work. They need to develop the next gen of broadcasters.

Harleen blew the no-no and the shutout. Shittell gets his first ML hit.

Bad guys, 0-1

 

[tzill]

Not a great job of seeing pitches from Hendrick, but not awful. Now, MOHR hits.

 

[tzill]

The HR pitch wasn't a meatball, but it was elevated. Good job of hitting there.

Ok, top of the sixth is a big inning. 3rd time through, Hendricks at the end of his day. KB batting 4th.

LETS GOOOOOO

Gotta be refreshing for you with this kind of game after Coors.

 

[msgkings322]

There we go! Leadoff double, it's imperative he scores even with outs.

 

[msgkings322]

Would like to see Posey go oppo here, even an out moves Belt over

 

[msgkings322]

Nice, productive out

SAC FLY IS REQUIRED HERE WADE (minimum, more is welcome of course)

 

[msgkings322]

YUUUUSSSSS!

 

[msgkings322]

Wade though, come on with that baserunning

 

[tzill]

Doval in. Solid five outs from Alvarez

 

[filosofy29]

KB has been a black hole at the plate recently.

 

[tzill]

Re: the "C" on Belts jersey -- he's a captain. Apparently the team decided after watching Jeter's induction.

No doubt, but nothing unusual. Posey is having similar trouble, maybe just now coming out of it...

 

[tzill]

Handsome leadoff single...

 

[msgkings322]

LONGO DUC DONGO!
