Felt like they could've really busted the game open in that inning.

Stowers’ at bats are real bad. He is not patient and seems to swing at outside fast balls that he rolls over on.

I'm a big Stowers supporter and think he should get a regular run but he has to show something.

GRod has pretty much canned the slider. Using cutter more. Similar type pitches. Will need to work on reshapping that slider in the offseason

When GRod has the good fastball and good command of it its a big plus. Just need to refine the secondary pitches

I almost never like trying to bunt for a hit. Terrible attempt by Cedric there.

Really you are understanding why the FO sent GRod down to start the year and Stowers barely got ABs and eventually went down. Both clearly have things to work on. GRod closer though and hes obviously the better talent

I'm not sure what more Stowers can show in AAA. He's at the age and minor league experience where you either put up or get that AAAA label.

Need to cash in with a clutch hit or two when they get these multi base runner innings. 4 probably won't be enough to do it.

Actually, I like to see it utilized because defenses today practically give it to you. Unfortunately, 2023 hitters are not skilled in that department and thus, usually don't even bother. They have enough trouble just laying down a sacrifice.

I don't know what their batting average is with runners in scoring position during this 3 game stretch but it has to be abysmal.

Walls already took him deep. Probably doesn't want to risk it.

Hate when Hyde comes out with 2 outs and only a man on 1st, but what do I know?!

Nice outing by Rodriguez.

Nice bounce back from his last one.

Love when a relief pitcher comes in and walks the first battery on 4 pitches.
