Giants @ Astros, 5/1/2023

so, 2.1 innings?

Fuck. Keep pitching from behind and find out.

5 games, 19.2 IP.

Also fuck Joc Pederson.

Bielak was giving up a lot of good contact, that HR seemed a bit inevitable.

Pederson drilled that.

Yes, Tucker recognized it immediately.

Top 3rd

Bielak pitching

Wisely - F8.
Wade - after 1st pitch foul, 3 balls that are not even close, then loses hims on a ball low and inside. Walk.
Estrada - F 9 to the warning track in front of the BOA sign.
Pederson - crushes center cut FB on a 3-1 count to right for HR.
Haniger - Ks on 3 pitches.

Mid 3 - Giants 2 Astros 1.

Offense needs to answer back.

I support this.

Yep he went and knew it.

Dubon needs to work on his pull-back game.

Stripling did not throw a single strike to Dubon or Bregman.

Might be easier work on his recognizing-high-pitches game.

Bottom 3rd

Stripling pitching

Maldonado - F8.
Dubon - gets to 3-1, watches a generous strike 2 on high outside pitch, then gets called out (by 1st base ump) swinging and missing on another high pitch.
Bregman - 4-3 ground out.

End 3 - Giants 2 Astros 1.

How is that going to fool a 1B ump?

Walk to Davis

Pop up bunt by Sabol that Bielak couldn’t get

What a shitty bunt.

Good grief. Pops up a two-strike bunt and it turns into a hit.

Come on, Bielak! Throw strikes and get out of this mess.

That’s one of those signs that it might not be your night.
