NL Wild Card Game 2 - Diamondbacks (Gallen) vs Brewers (Peralta): 10/4/23, 6:08pm

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

That didn't LOOK that bad relative to some other backswing-hitting-the-catcher moments I've seen, but Moreno sure doesn't seem right.

[DuWayne Steurer]

when our measure of success for a good turang ab is "he made the pitcher work a bit" there's some serious evaluation that needs to be done.

[Brewcrew82]

Somebody's gotta step in and take him out.

[brewers888]

Of course the next at bat is a one pitch pop up.

[dlk9s]

Any fans who were booing can GTFO.

There is no neutral party. Guy was never coming out.

[Sixtolezcano]

Why to work the count Taylor.

[DuWayne Steurer]

6 minute delay and tt swings at the first pitch

Thinking the same.

I think its more than fair to question if Turang will ever hit enough. The defense is great but he's got to provide something with the bat. 

I think he’s a rookie and guys can improve. 

[brewers888]

Turang 9 pitches and Taylor and Yelich saw three combined.

That’s as shocking as Stearns to the Mets

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Something just seemed off about that whole interaction with Moreno. I really hope he's alright. The guys on the DBacks know better, obviously, but that sure looked to me like a guy who was shook up.

Really hope he's actually healthy and can stay in the game because it would be real bad if he had to exit in a couple of innings.

Concussion. I've had enough to know what that is.

Same. That's clear as day that he's dazed, and you cannot risk another collision making this 10x worse. Watching him catch is no concussion test either, I'm not a fan of that from Lovullo at all

Hope he hits 40 HRs next year

Spare me. It’s a playoff game. Most people in the park didn’t know it was concussion-related. Plus, if we need a 6 minute injury delay, he should have probably been pulled from the game. 

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

They might have to do something about re-entering the game in situations like this, where you probably need to administer one of those concussion tests. Maybe allow for a half-inning, temporary catcher or something.

[Underachiever]

Robin Yount. Guys can improve, even if they don’t become a hall-of-famer and two-time MVP.

Good for him.  He was never going to get another shot here

[kevinisaname]

D-backs seem to be taking their timeouts after the first strike. I don't know if that means anything besides trying to screw up Peralta's rhythm. 

[brewers888]

Efficient Freddy is the best. 

[Team Canada]

Freddy looking sharp.

[BruisedCrew]

Great job by Peralta getting back on schedule after that first inning.

yount was 18 as a rookie, and put up a 79 ops+. turang is 23, putting up a 62 ops+

there's a lot of context missing there.
