Headley grounds out for the 1st out.

 

Quentin ahead 2-1.

Good job by Freddy to get to 1st so quickly... with plenty of time to spare.

Crazy hop there. Nice play from Manny. 2 out.

Marquis walks the two batters in front of you, so you swing at the first pitch?! Ugh.

 
Yeah.  Manny sucks
 
This isn't little league.  McLouth walked on 8 pitches, even though Pearce was on 4 it's not like Marquis was all over the place and couldn't throw a strike.

I'm definitely not saying that Manny.sucks..but it seems to me that he's been swinging at a lot of first pitches when the batter in front of him gets on base.

And you're sure that's a bad thing?

Nice quick inning.

Whatever... you hate him, admit it. You wanted us to draft a pitcher that year.

Let's go tie this thing up.  Marquis doesn't seem too sharp so far.

Nope, I'm not..Just something I've noticed.

What was up with Marquis hop there after the 1st strike to Jones? Looks like he was headed over to Canton or something.

One-pitch outs are certainly frustrating, and elating for a pitcher.  But it's not necessarily a bad thing to be aggressive and swing at the first pitch.  Manny's been raking on first pitches this year, 7/20 with 2 2B and a HR.

Poor Coker... ya just got BBRef'd... BOOM!

I looked it up and went for the setup, too.  He deftly avoided walking into the trap, but I spent the time looking up the numbers so I had to at least post them!

I just don't trust Garcia.

Haha... I could tell... I was wondering if you'd have mercy on him.

Okay, so when does Tai-Bo hit HRs?!?!?!  Ugh!

[You Play to Win the Game]

Good call having McFarland start to warm... our BP can afford the work haul today with the 2 off days this week.

[Mackus]

I just don't trust Garcia.

 

He's certainly not worthy of any trust.  I just hope he can be a 4.50ish ERA guy for a month or so until we get Chen back.  Same with Jurjjens.

The surprising thing is that it wasn't a badly placed pitch... though a poor "stuff" pitch nevertheless. I was surprised he was able muscle that one out of the park.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Wow, I didn't realize he had already thrown 75 pitches.
