What an atrocious 0-2 pitch

[DesertBrew52]

Hate when I’m right

[adambr2]

Q with a 91 MPH meatball in the upper part of the zone on 0-2, and that should be all the Rangers need tonight.

[Bulldogboy]

Two walks will get you slammed. 

[kevinisaname]

Awful, awful, awful 0-2 pitch. Can't do that. Upper end of the zone.

[jason21nl]

Why the F even throw a pitch close?   Brutal

Or Durbin if he doesn't get it into gear soon. This is as bad as I've seen him this year offensively.

Too much bench time.

I'm guessing he was trying to go well above the zone, but that was obviously a bad idea and did not work out.

[Bulldogboy]

Well complete meltdown by Q. Carlos Rodriguez come on down 

[adambr2]

Quintana has honestly been everything you could ask for from your #4 starter this year.

With that said, I don’t want him throwing a lot of innings in the playoffs.

Maybe that’s why they finally let Miz pitch last game.   See if he can be the fourth starter instead of Quintana 

[Bulldogboy]

I wonder if Ortiz obp would go up if he just stood at the plate and never swung.

[BruisedCrew]

Phillies win. Cubs lose. 

[edfunderburk]

At least the Cubs lost 

[willie key]

Still at 7.5.   

[adambr2]

Pretty rough season for Ortiz. The defense checks out, but a 66 OPS+ isn’t going to cut it long-term, especially as Made gets closer to the bigs.

[82brewcrew82]

Thought they were ready to start rounding into form but this is yet another very sloppy game.

[RobertCrawley]

Anyone have flight times to Nashville for Blake?

[Bulldogboy]

Did they try to steal there? What happened?

[kevinisaname]

I just hate sloppy play, and this is a sloppy game. Some not-so-smart decisions on the base paths.

[wOOgiE22]

You have to be 100% sure you can make it there. Not smart by Perkins

[adambr2]

How do you make an out on the bases down 4 runs with 2 men on, 2 out, and your #3 hitter up? Just, how?

Bounced away from the catcher a little bit and Blake tried to advance and was thrown out.

[jason21nl]

Yeah…they’re getting shut out tonight.

As the third out? Man....
