Tie game. JV is gave up hard hit balls to the last 3 batters.

 

[manchild98]

Go out and visit him just to break the momentum.

Son of a Bitch!

That's what happens when you have 6 innings of no offense after scoring 2 in the first, it comes back to bite you in the ass.

ouch for calling our alvarez and barnes a second ago

Tie game. JV is gave up hard hit balls to the last 3 batters.

just the way he looked turning to the outfield and holding his cap, he knew the pitch was up.

 

[manchild98]

We need to find a way to win this game today.

come on JV, get pissed and use the flamethrower now, need some 98-101 fastballs.

 

[manchild98]

Nice DP to end the inning.

Verlander has 58 consecutive starts with 6+ IP. That ties him with Walter Johnson for 4th longest streak since 1918.

BTW seems like I heard that in the Cards post game broadcast the other day. And even on the 101 ESPN station St Louis, I'm a thinking.

Nothing over 95 yet, he usually starts gearing up at this point to keep the hitters from timing him.

2 days in a row where 1 pitch might have decided the game. These guys gotta wake up the bats. Damn shame when Scherzer and JV were nearly perfect and nothing to show for it.

 

[lonesometiger]

Really Berry's speed here should become a factor. Any extra base hit could score him and that is a good thing to have late in a game.

 

[27tigers]

I would like to see a double from either Cabrera or Fielder.

 

[spockmaster]

man, what the hell is up with cabrera again?

 

[spockmaster]

fielder is getting walked, here comes young with a first pitch out (most likely)

 

[kalinecountry]

Cabrera swings through a fastball letter high,

Fielder getting a free walk,

leaves it up to delmon,

 

[theTutor]

whats Delmon's stats following a Prince Feilder Intentionally walk?

 

[gotime909]

I have a feeling he's due

 

[spockmaster]

first pitch foul.

This is why Young batting 5th is insane.

Teams can IBB Fielder to get to the least disciplined motherfucker on the team.

And blind squirrel finds a nut...great, now he'll be in the 5 hole forever.
