Keep telling us he’ll turn it around. I don’t see it.

I don’t mean you, HH. I mean Dusty and others.

He so behind on everything. He got three straight fastball about 95, which is a good fastball, but it’s not overpowering or anything. He never stood a chance.

B1:

Bielak walks the first hitter he faces

B1:

Next pitch is a double to LF…runners at 2B and 3B, nobody out

That was fortunate

B1:

Kelenic lines into a 6-4 double play. Ouch that was dumb.

“Lines” is generous. It was halfway between liner and pop up.

Yeah, it wasn’t hit hard. Sort of a looping liner?

Suarez lines out to 3B and Bielak pulls a rabbit out of his hat. No score after one

Thank you, Ty France, for your base-running blunder.

Peña just missed it.

Don’t blame Tucker for trying. Pretty much forced to manufacture runs.

It’s a good idea with the new rules, regardless.

T2:

Tucker draws a leadoff walk,
Peña flies out to deep LF. Just got it off the end of the bat a little.
Tucker thrown out trying to steal 2B.
Julks strikes out swinging

No score

When your two and four hitters are automatic outs…

Does every fucking blooper drop for these guys?

Trammell flies out at the wall in LCF

No score

T3:

Maldonado with a 1-out single
Dubon pops out to RF
Bregman pops up the first pitch. He’s now hitting below .200

I wonder what happened to him. It looked for all the world like he’d be a perennial MVP candidate, now it looks a lot like after this contract expires he’ll be playing with the Savannah Bananas.
