5/26: Gonzalez vs. Jenkins

 

 

[You Play to Win the Game]

Between AA and MLB, Jenkins has thrown just 10 innings on the year over 2 starts. Last year, he worked primarily out of the Jays pen, but did make 3 starts with the big league team. He pitched to a 4.50 ERA last year (5.25 FIP)... 3.09 BB/9, 4.50 K/9. 

 

Pitch F/X shows he works with a sinker 56% of the time, at 88 MPH... a 4-seamer 28% of the time at 89 MPH, and a slider 17% of the time at 79.9 MPH.

87 down the pike to start the game to Nate.

On a full count, Nate fouls a couple back.

The ab ends with Nate earning a walk.

Manny with a slow liner back to Jenkins, Jenkins doubles up Nate. 2 down.

Nick safe at 1st as Jenkins unable to come up cleanly with the comebacker.

Poor Nate thought that shot by Manny was headed to CF.

Jones doubles to left.... Markakis was running on the pitch, but is thrown out at the plate. Nice relay.

Just a horrendous call to send Markakis. Terrible. Out by a mile.

[Chris B]

That wasn't close.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Cabrera flies out, 1 out in the Jays 1st.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Joey Bats just worked by Gonzalez there. Back to the dugout. 2 out.

[BSLChrisStoner]

A 2 out walk to Encarnancion.

[Chris B]

Too many pitches.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Lind k's, ending a long 1st.

 

O's coming back up.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Davis with a double to start the 2nd.

Nice rip, Crush!

This has been a crazy series.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Hardy singles into left, Davis gets to 3rd.  Runners on the corners, none out.
