Not better than Framber tonight , but MLB won’t tell you that.
Top 7
Warren pitching
McCormick doubles again to left
Maldonado - shows bunt- outside, again - inside, swings and miss on FB, flies out to right. Chas holds at 2nd. 1 out
Altuve - ball outside, bunts 5-3. Throw just beats him. McCormick to 3rd. 2 outs
Quijada in to pitch
Brantley - FB up and in ball 1, flies out to center.
…and 0-3 at the plate
He’s one of if not the most interesting player in MLB, and I don’t begrudge them promoting the hell out of him. They should promote their superstars more, I think.
That’s the Athletic not MLB, btw.
Gotta get used to not having the Correa cannon out there, I suppose.
Wow that was close
Maddon is going to waste everyone’s time with a challenge.
Well that was quite the two pitch momentum shift.

Dammit, that was a good pitch.
Gotta think that Framber missed his spot badly and Maldy’s sliding across the plate befuddled the HPU. It was a strike.
If we’re talking about the same pitch.
No, I meant the pitch that Duffy hit to Bregman

Trout - ball just outside, strike 1 top of zone, FBall high, bounces to Pena, throw pulls Gurriel off the bag. 1 on.
Rendon- ball outside, FB strike, FB upband away (2-1), swing and miss at FB (2-2), fouls off curve, FB looks like strike, but Maldonado had to move to get it (3-2), just foul over the fence - upheld by review, 4-6-3 DP. Whew.

Not a great decision to dive there by Yordan
Fucking hell, Yordan. That was a terrible decision.

Well Yordan probably played himself into more DH games there
