Gasser looks scared. I don't blame him.

[trwi7]

Don't challenge the high leverage pitches last night but challenge that.

[adambr2]

All the pitches you should have challenged last night and then you challenge a completely non consequential call in the 1st.

Incredible 

[yourout]

I'll be shocked if Gasser makes it three innings.

[Bulldogboy]

Just keep winning innings. 2-1 so far. Gotta score here.

[yourout]

I assume the total number of pitches thrown in last night's game was the high for the league this season

What is this, Banana Ball?

Kurtz HR only had a 9% hit probability.

After watching the game last night it is clear that the series is going to be all offense. I dont get why Vaughn isn't in, maybe Murph wants to build up Sal but Vaughn just had one of the best games of the year.

He may have to go five no matter the results … or at least 80 pitches since we have such a taxed bullpen

That is nuts... if the new stadium next year is anything like this he will hit 70 bombs just playing home games.

[trwi7]

Popped it up.  Ends up about 5 feet from the wall.

Agree, Patrick can probably go 2-3 innings and Megill is fresh. After that not much.

You can’t play this game like a normal game.    This is slow pitch softball.  Just hit weak fly balls for homers.    Vaughn can do that.   Better than rengifro

A’s threw season high 238 pitches last night. Brewers only threw 203 pitches.

He's out of touch imo. You can't justify not playing a bat first lineup in this park. Sal leaving two stranded is already an issue. I'm sure the As were like thanks Murphy 

[igor67]

This feels more over the top than pre-humidor Coors, its early so maybe it won't be so ridiculous over time.

[trwi7]

There is literally no batted ball data on a lot of the stuff today.  Nothing on Yelich's pop up to the wall, nothing on Kurtz's homer, Sal' flyball, Thomas's flyball.  Would it surprise anybody if the MLB office told them not to put some of it out there because it makes them look bad?

Patrick has pitched the last two days. I doubt he’s available tonight. And Megill may not be able to pitch due to a minor injury. 

[Bulldogboy]

Welp lost the second inning. I'm seriously not sure Gasser won't give up 7-8 homers tonight. Well at least Sal can watch them fly over his head
