Watkins 30 pitches in inning one and 49 through the next 5.  Pretty impressive.

He’s left his mark on this game. And unsurprisingly, it hasn’t been at the plate, lol. Still, he’s fun to watch out there.

We have 3 centerfield types out there tonight.

Watkins has held his own this year, 7 of his 10 appearances have been usable-to-good.

They never said why Hyde was ejected? Almost surely balls and strikes

I understand we don't really know where we want to be, but if they decide to trade Trey, the Twins should be one of the interested options.

Which is why you dont need to sign another Lyles type. Obviously we have to do better than both this offseason. I mean if Lyles was our 5th starter next year thats not bad

This ump man. No wonder why Hyde got tossed

Automated zone cant get here soon enough

And may be drafting another here in a few weeks. Love the OF defense.

Watkins has done pretty well but he had an 8 ERA last year, and had nothing to do with us not signing another starter.

Omg this bum ump. You know the famous Angel Hernandez game where Scwarber got tossed earlier this year. Not even one of the worst called games by an ump this year according to ump scorecard.

Yeah, he’s awful.

Odor is cool and all, but I’m ready to see what we’ve got in Vavra.

Saw a good video on the umpiring which ill link. Shows how one missed called on a ball or strike can make a big difference. Big difference in BA in particular counts and big difference in runs scored in an inning when a guy reaches base. Why it drives me crazy when people say missed calls are part of the game and "dont make a difference". Its just not true

Interesting to see what happens when Vavra, Westburg, Henderson, and Mateo are all up here. Vavra can play some OF

Cionel Perez with another good inning.

There is that man again.  McKenna with a lead off double,  Having a real nice night.

[You Play to Win the Game]

McKenna with a lead off double in the 8th. Huge. Need to score him here.

[Mike B]

Trey with a nice AB getting McKenna to 3rd.
