Lmao.
A freaking 0-2 count cookie right in the heart of the plate.

 

[biggunsbob]

This is what happens when you let up 0-2 count hits, and you don’t use the count to your advantage. Bases loaded now after back to back walks after the single. He can’t find the plate now. In big trouble needs a dp or a k. Trail 1-0 after ground out.
Trail 1-0 after one.

The teams ahead of us in the wild card standings and in the division came out of the All Star game at full speed. Our team acts like they should get a mulligan.

 

[nydo77]

I guess that realistically, the teams that I see winning that are ahead of us are playing other teams ahead of us, so it is a wash. We do need to win, though.

 

[biggunsbob]

Getting mowed down by another lefty. Keep it close maybe we get lucky.

 

[biggunsbob]

Meat pitch to Trout. Double. Followed by a walk. Melton gets a K. And I think the Angels are out of. Challenges
Popout then another out gets out of the Jam.

Hitters please start hitting !

 

[nydo77]

Meat pitch to Trout. Double. Followed by a walk.

Followed by nibbling.

 

[biggunsbob]

All tigers get is a 2 out double followed by a shit at bat.
Getting mowed down.

 

[biggunsbob]

Nifty Dp.

 

[biggunsbob]

This is embarrassing.

 

[biggunsbob]

Can Dan Hit for the tigers ?

 

[biggunsbob]

This lineup just sucks when it does not hit homers.

 

[nydo77]

This lineup just sucks when it does not hit homers.

It also has no one that has actual threatening power. Dingler doing that for two weeks doesn't change that equation. There is a reason why we have lost so many close games.

 

[biggunsbob]

McKinstry swings at a ball a foot low.
Shame he would been on 3rd, after Matt’s single .
I thought they were out of challenges ?
He looks safe to me.
Kevin swings at the same pitch McKinstry swang at.
At foot low.

 

[biggunsbob]

Three outs away from being 1-3 against the shitty Angels.


Glad I am wrong !
2-2 !

 

[biggunsbob]

Melton and Montero 14 K’s
Three Angels pitdhers are at 12 with a half inning to go.

 

[biggunsbob]

Tork (0-2),(1-2)(2-2) you can’t miss that pitch F-7.

[biggunsbob]

[biggunsbob]
