One run should be enough as the hitless wonders swing at everything within a foot of the plate.

Jesus this O needs a charge, get Gunner (3B) and Sowers L/RF) up, put Santander at DH (In the field when Adley is at DH) and Vavra at 2B!!!

The bull pen is toast.   

 

Akin hasn't pitched since the weekend.

He did, I think. Mountcastle just couldn't catch it.

It was a tough pick, but had Mountcastle made the play, he was out. Another nice outing for Spenser.

I would have left him in too.

First three innings was cruise control.  Quickly set everyone down without much issue.  4th onward was a grind.  Good work to get through that with just 1 run (so far).

Did Mountcastle get spiked?

I didn't notice.  Definitely had a lot going on trying to make the scoop around the runner.

Please score some runs.  Threatened some the last couple innings.  Push through.

Sampson is fading.  Gotta make him pay before they can yank him.

They do yank him, and he isn’t happy about it.

Getting decent opportunities just can’t do anything.

Well so far (and certainly this team can pick it up in the late innings) but this makes it 4 of the last 6 that we have scored 2 or fewer. Not going to cut it.

Hays hit a shot to left.  Might have been a home run last year.  who moved the wall?

Happens to all teams. Offense struggles. Then breaks out. Sucks it happened now

There is baseball, and occasionally there are other things of note

"Making his own olive brine is peak Mackus."
