I don't think I've ever seen Frelick look as uncomfortable in an at-bat as he looked in that one. Just never had a shot.

Why the emphatic throw down from Contreras?

He wanted to drive in a run.

Stared that one down right into the strike zone.

Yeah, Yelich was totally guessing 3-2. Didn't guess right on that one. With runners on base in a 0-0 game, would have preferred a more aggressive guess there.

Zas vs. Machado is going to be an interesting choice.

[kevinisaname]

Welp.

Horrible choice.  There are certain match ups that should not happen even when playing the show. Murphy....

[nate82]

I swear the strike zone for some umpires just gets worse as the game goes on.  In the beginning it is very loose and then all of a sudden the last few innings it gets tighter and tighter to where pitches clearly in the strike zone get called a ball.  

[MoreTrife]

Puzzling. Very puzzling.

[LouisEly]

Is it really that bad to leave the prior pitcher in for one more batter, then go to the bullpen?

Am I missing something?

[adambr2]

Why not leave Peralta in just to face Machado and then go to Zas?

The radio guys were all over this one as well. Mentioned a few different times before the at-bat happened. It was an interesting move and then Machado hit it out.. I'm sure Murphy will have to answer for that one after the game if we lose.

[BruisedCrew]

Another dagger from Machado

I wish fans would give up on booing him. It just seems to motivate him. 

[willie key]

1-0 again.    God

 

hit the ball.

I have a feeling Murphy will say he did that last game, and Peralta gave up two runners. Not saying I agree with it at all because I don't.

He did leave Uribe in to face Machado last night and he ripped a single. 
 

Maybe leave Peralta in, pitch to him carefully and accept a walk.

I think we'll all take a single any day of the week against what happened.

[Brian]

Zas had a 0.00 ERA but not the pressure of Uribe. It's not 0.00 anymore. 

[Frisbee Slider]

This is it for Ortiz! 🤞

[titletownking]

Ouch, Durbin gets smoked after Collin’s whiffed on three very hittable pitches 

[Bulldogboy]

I don't see how you let Ortiz hit there. You have 7 outs left.

[kevinisaname]

Man Joey is bad.

You mean down the middle hittable?

We got nobody on the bench that can hit bauers wasnt an option pulling hoskins right there was stupid also

I was just pleased he didn't get doubled up, which says something.

If you still have a sub .500 OPS in June with full-time ABs, that is not ideal. 

[kevinisaname]

This feels like it's gonna end 1-0.
