Willy in HR or nothing mode right now.

In a situation where we needed a ball in play.

Adames has suddenly fallen into one of those ruts where he’s pulling off of everything

Wonder what his 2 strike BA is? He is not one to just put it in play.

[Bulldogboy]

These games are very valuable opportunity to match up with our young guys in a playoff type feel. See who is ready for prime time.

Forget about what the Cubs are doing, with the Dodgers losing to the Marlins by 3 this is one you want.

[RobertCrawley]

Montas.

[Baldkin]

Montas looks uncomfortably warm.... But good job. 

[markedman5]

Nobody laughing at the Montas trade anymore…….this front office gets every benefit of the doubt

The Reds have to be wondering why he's so much better now.

I am sure most guys BA drops off with 2 strikes but he seems even more than normal.

[RobertCrawley]

Hard to drive up the pitch count when the pitcher throws so many strikes.

Aaron Judge hits .206 with 2 strikes, and he's the best offensive player in the league.

I don't even want to go back and look at all of them, but I do remember a couple from the usual suspects. People never learn.

Tony Gwynn hit over .300.   Just insane

I remember thinking the trade was a head scratcher and hoping Hook could work his magic.

[RobertCrawley]

Didn't get him, but nice play by Ortiz.

Yup. Only guy to hit over .300 with 2 strikes. Of course he rarely struck out. He was up there to slap the ball. That's not even a taught skill anymore.

Even Shohei only hitting .186 with 2 strikes.

[Bulldogboy]

Montas is in the playoff rotation if you ask me. Dude has good stuff.

[kevinisaname]

Ugh, I felt that coming. That hurts.

Harper can hit good stuff though. 

[yourout]

That might be enough for tonight.

[Brewcrew82]

That was a bad pitch in an otherwise stellar outing by Montas.
