Seriously, those were great pitches to Napoli that entire at bat. After he went 0-2 he stayed away but put them in tempting locations. Then it goes 3-2 and he K's him with a beauty.

 

[manchild98]

7 k's is a season high for Rick.

 

[biggunsbob]

Rick is dealing!!!

 

[manchild98]

That might be it for Rick. 4 pitch walk. And it is.

Pretty good job, on a hot-ass day.

Thanks Rick.

Love those 2 in the OF. They run everything down.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Can't run that down though.

0-2 pitch... stupid pitch ...stupid location... What does Jones teach these kids...

 

[tigermud]

0-2 pitch none the less

I'm not sure that's Jones fault. Some times pitches don't break or they just throw it wrong location.

But the power swing on that pitch. 0-2 and your swinging for the fence with a swing. Well that's baseball, these days, green light on ever pitch I guess.

Why not use a mop up guy up 8-2?

Pukerton got sent back down, and besides with the way this season has gone so far I'm not so sure the term mop up guy is something we can afford to have in our vocabulary. lol

Exactly, it always easy to sit back and wonder why a guy threw a pitch in a certian spot, but most of the time it's probably not where he wanted it to go.

Texas has a lineup that could come back, for one thing. But yea Tuesday game could need good relief.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Because its Texas and the game isn't over yet.

B/S looks like BV is going to stay another inning.
