Pale Hose @ Minute Maid, 8.16.24

I’d rule that an E1 but we all know I’m a hardass

Catch the goddamn ball

Hope our bats get going now, there’s something really wrong about being behind to the White Sox, especially at home …

Okay let’s go to work - lets see as many pitches as possible (get Crochet out of there - and put pressure on their pen for the entire weekend)…

Top 2:

Andrew Vaughn singles immediately to left on a play Bregman probably handles.

Gavin Sheets k’s swinging.

Korey Lee, because ex-guy, smacks a double into left center. 2nd and 3rd for Miguel Vargas.

Vargas walks on four pitches. Bases juiced, one out.

Dominic Fletcher grounds into a 3-6 FC that should’ve been a double play but Arrighetti couldn’t hold on to Pena’s throw. Run scores. 1st and 3rd for Brooks Baldwin.

My cat Lil’ Pal Rudy is heavy and warm on my belly/lap.

Baldwin flies out to right.

1-0 Sox.

If you didn’t see us losing to the White Sox at home today, you’re crazy!

I’m just hoping they don’t get swept. By both Sox.

Pale Hose can suck it

Ditto, but I’m not putting any money on it.

Peña with a knock!

Why on God’s little acre would you ever throw Jeremy Peña a fastball.

Anyone know how far King Tuck is away from rehab stint?

9 years.

That seems like the most obvious turn of events.

Jesus we are swinging at shit in the dirt (Yainer, Carat Top, and Now Jake)

Lets go Rook!

Maybe Jake should try using a special bat with some hits in it.

We’ll be lucky to score.

Indeed it is Bogusevic with Ford in the booth! Even after co-starring in the pre-game show! Will wonders never cease???

Bottom 2:

Pena, on a four game hit streak (how much do you miss hit streaks?) makes it five with a hard low single into left.

Caratini, batting northpaw against Crochet, K’s swinging.

I need another beer, and to pee, but this cat? This responsibility I’ve given myself? I’ll wait until the third out and take care of business. I’m not insane.

Meyers K’s swinging.

Dezenzo, studying strikes, swings at one and comes up empty.

brb

Counted at least 5 pitches in the middle of the plate at high velo 97+

We have to get our heads, bats ready to hit.
