T1:
Altuve strikes out swinging at ball five in the dirt
Peña…0-2…foul…1-2…strikes out swinging
Alvarez strikes out swinging
Pretty uninspiring inning
His breaking stuff looks pretty sharp so far.
Lulling him into a false sense of security.
Very nice jump, route and catch by Jake
Smooth play by Meyers…
Nice catch by Meyers. When that left the bat I didn’t think anybody would get to it.
B1:
Crawford singles to LF
France…0-2…1-2…foul…2-2…foul…lines out to CF on a diving catch by Meyers on the sinking liner
Winker…0-2…flies out F7
Santana pops out F5 on the first pitch
Scoreless
That’s enough striking out bullshit.
I guess these guys have a plan to bury the Kerry Wood game. I don’t like the plan.
T2:
Bregman…0-2…foul…1-2…takes strike three, fastball on the outside edge
Tucker…works the count full…grounds out 6-3 in the shift
Gurriel…0-2…1-2…foul on a pitch in the dirt…foul…flies out F9
Well, they managed to put a ball in play. Baby steps, I guess
0-0
At least JV’s used to minimal run support. Gilbert is locked in.
B2:
Suárez…full count…strikes out swinging
Frazier grounds to SS, Peña in the shift behind 2B, fields it to his right, but throws a slow ground ball to 1B. Infield shiftfuck single
Raleigh pops out F5 on the first pitch
Moore strikes out looking on a knee buckling curve ball.
No score
Pena never had a good grip on the ball
Great bunt by Jake.
T3:
McCormick…0-2…punches a single to RF, as Hagerty runs in a circle and let’s it drop at his feet
Meyers with a bunt single, McCormick to 2B
Maldonado…squares around, takes strike one…not bunting, foul…foul…strikes out swinging. Coulda used a productive out there
Altuve…hacking again…lines into a 6-4 double play, McCormick caught off of 2B
Thud
No score.
B3:
Haggerty…0-2…strikes out looking
Crawford grounds out 6-3 in the shift
France flies out F8
Through three…scoreless
Who is in the booth on the FS1 broadcast?
Tucker!
