So baez gets rewarded for costing det the game yesterday with his defensive blunder, with a start in CF.

In AJ we trust.

He just better start hitting.. lol

 

[biggunsbob]

Baez is worthless. I have sound muted. I think Meadows could have gotten that.

 

[biggunsbob]

Montero in trouble because he is a nibbler and walk guys.
Damage limited to 1-0.

Back to back games Greene's lazy ass upper cut swing can't get runner home from 3rd and ZERO freaking outs !

Wake up Greene!!!!

To be fair, anyone out there is an upgrade from Kreidler

 

[gotime909]

That a boy torres!!!

 

[gotime909]

Nice play from jung at 3rd!

 

[biggunsbob]

Montero sigh just can't get back to back clean innings

BB
Boom !!!! 5-4-3.
Jung has made 3 great plays tonight !

[gotime909]

[gotime909]

Montero sigh just can't get back to back clean innings

Infield single
5-3 ( Jung nice play.
BB
Boom !!!! 5-4-3.
Jung has made e great plays tonight !

He's pretty unlucky. That first infield single looked like Sweeney dragged his dick before coming in. That probably should've been an easy play. No idea why Sweeney is so far back. Almost cost 2 infield singles to start the inning if Jung hadn't charged in front of him to take the 2nd.

 

[gotime909]

Even singles sound loud from tork this year.

 

[gotime909]

Benetti just mentioned tork has a 6 face hitting streak. Got me thinking, when I was a kid they always made a big deal about hitting streaks to the point that you always knew which player in the league had the longest.l current streak. It's been years since I've heard anything about a hitting streak. Wonder what changed?
