LOL, who ever heard of a 92 MPH change up Miz just threw. 

[kevinisaname]

Nice start by Miz. Close call by Seiya.

[HarryDoyle]

Much better start for Miz. I was nervous he'd have a bad game.

The 97 slider seemed nuts too.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Great AB from Suzuki. Love the smile from Miz. He's like "if that's the wind here, I'm just throwing cheese."

Seriously, though, great body language from the kid tonight. Looks dialed in.

I was really worried about the top of the 1st. Hopefully he can keep it up.

As filthy as a pitch that ends up dead middle can ever be.

A homer in 16/30 parks, and would have been here too much of the time.  Dodged one.

[kevinisaname]

Gotta get something out of these two walks.

[Zad Fnark]

Seigler does walk a lot, it seems.

[kevinisaname]

Three walks. C'mon, Blake!

[kevinisaname]

Put it in play, I'll take it. Come on, Joey!

[kevinisaname]

Just can't get that big hit this series, it seems.

[HarryDoyle]

It's something, I guess. Still waiting for that big hit.

[Bulldogboy]

I thought Ortiz was out tonight? The king of pop ups for sure. 

[BCF]

Joey is insane. Guy walks three batters. Then swings at first pitch not even in strike zone. Gotta use common sense 

[folly412]

Another one of the bad Ortiz ABs.  3 walks and a full count later, he tries to ambush the first pitch.

[Vgmastr]

Way to work the count Joey, it's not like Rea just walked three batters or anything.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Got one across, but didn't get the big hit with RISP. Missing that multi-RBI strike a bit lately.

[Brewer77]

He hits so many infield pop ups. I’m tired of it

[BarremlensTSSC]

Swinging at a 1st pitch fastball at the top of the zone when Rea is struggling to throw strikes is a choice one can make.  At least they got 1.  Hopefully they keep up the pitch selection that was going on earlier that inning and put some pressure on Rea.  Sooner or later they'll come up with a hit with RISP.

Great 2nd inning, Miz.
