Nationals (Williams) vs Brewers (Burnes): 9/16/23, 6:10pm

Now there's a time I don't mind the Robots posts. That was pathetic.

[HarryDoyle]

I'd like to see a there is your dagger home run here.

[Dragonbait]

Not often you bat around in the 1st...

 

Poor Burnes, having to wait so long.

[Brewcrew82]

Well, you'll take the 3 runs and the 45 pitch inning. 

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Didn’t land the knockout blow, but hard to be mad at scoring three runs to open the game. Get a shutdown inning in the 2nd and some tack-on runs early.

[jason21nl]

This has to feel like a million runs for Burnes 

[Sugarrayray]

I know Burnes changed his slider earlier in the year, but it kinda looks like he finally got the feel for it down. He’s locating well.

[RobertCrawley]

Cy's cutter sawed that bat in half.

[Dragonbait]

Awww.. only 1 K.

[HarryDoyle]

Burnes is pitching ticked off, like he lost a no hitter he shouldn't have.

‘Arbitration is coming’ -Burnes

[Frisbee Slider]

The most pitches I see in a 1 IP outing is Wade Davis with 69. However, he also faced 3 batters in his second inning of work.

If he is that rusty he may not even get called up at all.  I sure wouldn't call a person up just to run

Don’t tell Quentin Berry that, his entire career was being called up to run.

[RobertCrawley]

He was safe.

[Brewcrew82]

Should've challenged.

Sounds like he's making good contact.

The eye test on Tellez leads me to believe he gained a substantial amount of weight when on DL.  It's pretty easy to see.  My guess is an already big guy packed on 12-15 LBS.  

This is why I call Tellez Barrel Man.

I guess save the challenge for a possible higher leverage moment. Although, he probably was safe

[RobertCrawley]

That was a pretty good pitch he hit.

And even if it was tie goes to the runner they’re never gonna overturn unless it’s much more obvious.

[Pugger]

When was the last game Burnes gave up a run?

[AKCheesehead]

Looked like Corbin thought he already had 3 outs there.  I don't have the sound on.
