Hiura is back!

Infield hit for Molina.....figures

[Eye Black]

Even Molina is getting infield hits against the Brewers this year.

[yourout]

Going to hit 50 pitches in 2 innings.

[vetter]

Going to hit 50 pitches in 2 innings.

 

Just in time for tomorrow’s double header.

[vetter]

It’s fun popping a Rolaids every time the ball gets hit towards Keston now.

[Eye Black]

Going to hit 50 pitches in 2 innings.

 

Just in time for tomorrow’s double header.

Not great timing for what looks to be an inevitable short start from Burnes tonight. With Freddy Peralta gone I think we’re likely to see Eric Lauer at some point today or tomorrow.

[markedman5]

Grinding through 2

[yourout]

Sucks knowing if you give up 3 runs its pretty much a guaranteed loss.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

On the bright side, Cards with lots of wasted chances already.

[markedman5]

That’s a nice piece of hitting right there

[Eye Black]

I would really love to see Urias come through with a big hit in this situation. Come on Luis!

[vetter]

You know you’re living in bizarro world when Haines magic actually works on Arcia.

[markedman5]

I would really love to see Urias come through with a big hit in this situation. Come on Luis!

 

Not to be

Not to be

Yeah, I saw.

[Bulldogboy]

Add the Urias situation as another big disappointment.

[yourout]

Nottingham swings through a big fat meatball right down the gut.

[vetter]

What a broken record this season. Leadoff double and absolutely nothing to show for it

[Bulldogboy]

I understand it never happens but I remember the days when you had your ace on the mound in a big game. You had the chance to jump on top and put a run on the board. You get a leadoff double so you bunt with your weak hitting infielder to move the runner up. You get a run in and put some pressure on the other team. Those were the days.

Grounders finding holes tonight

Yep. Now it’s just swing for the fences everyone.

 

And then strikeout.

[vetter]

Looks like our luck is about to run out

[pacopete4]

And yet, more runs are scored per game now than when they used to bunt all the time.

[yourout]

This one is going to be over by the end of this inning.

[pacopete4]

Burnes isn’t ready for the bright lights it seems.
