2021-04-28: Marlins (Alcantara) at Brewers (Godley) [Brewers lose, 6-2 -- Godley’s start takes backseat to the Marty Foster show]

[MrTPlush]

Much like everyone wanting to bench Garcia after his blunder, Counsell getting ejected just to get ejected would have been rather pointless. Appease some fans, maybe, but doesn't do much good outside of that.

Just saw the replay, that's one of the worst calls I've ever seen.

 

This Godley guy looks a bit like Doug Jones.

Agreed

[sdcheezhd]

If you want to justify your existence, call the runner out for running out of the lane and send the guy back to 3d.

[Warning Track Power]

Godley looks like he throws one pitch over and over again. Slider low and away and outside to RH. Very much makes you appreciate what this rotation has been so far to date.

[owbc]

That's enough Godley for me, bring in the next arm from the storage closet.

[pacopete4]

Godley looks gassed.

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

So much for Godley finding something at the alternative site that made him an obvious choice over easier and, arguably, better candidates.

I'm not saying he needs to get ejected but he needs to have the umps explain themselves. You can't make a totally bizarre call like that without justification. If he gets tossed it happens but he just gave them a free pass on their stupidity.

It’s not like he didn’t go out and talk with the ump, so he got an explanation of something... he looked pretty pissed walking back to the dugout too.

None of us know what was said immediately after the play or even during the commercial break, though. Just because Counsell wasn't out there pulling his best Lou Pinella impression doesn't mean he didn't get justification.

[Sixtofan]

Without any idea of what they talked about - why would we assume that Counsell didn’t get an explanation. At least as much as the umps are ever willing to give.

[sdcheezhd]

My Man Godley!

[markedman5]

Godley pulling the Houdini act

[folly412]

What a Godly recovery!

[owbc]

Godley eventually realized that the Marlins had no intention of swinging the bat that inning.

[Sixtofan]

So 1 H, 5k, 4 BB. - does Godley have good stuff?

No

I don't know, even excluding Godley's best seasons, since opening day 2018, he has a 1.52 WHIP, 2:1 Strikeout to walk ratio, and nearly a K per inning. Those are #5 starter stats, and he's pitching like one today. Hopefully, Anderson will be back soon.

Godley reminds me of the late Ruben Quevedo. Note sure why, just does. W00f.

Looking like Pete Vuckovich to me.
