Hader will try to close out the 2-0 lead
I think it’s awesome that “42” is his favorite movie.
One out
Two out
And if my name was Luken Baker, I’d tell people it’s pronounced “Look-en-bocker”
Winner!
Terrific game from Brown, nice 1-2-3 no-drama inning from Hader to end it.
Hader was sharp, other than one pitch he airmailed to home plate.
That’s a good, old school National League-style win.
We’ll need a lot of that style of win this year.
Good starting pitching, scratch out a run, add one for insurance late, make it stand up. My kinda baseball.
It’s a good win but this lineup is capable of so much more. Good to see Yordan shake the rust off. Hopefully Walker gets it figured out soon.
Watching Walker play first base is worth the price of admission. Have to think that he will start hitting soon. Unless he has Abreuititis.
He has also been severely unlucky. Although there is no excuse for striking out looking with a runner on third and one out on a borderline pitch he should have easily been able to foul off.
