Lol idk which is worse leaving Stevens in or going to the bullpen 

[Cajun 11714]

Tie goes to the runner.

Yup

[D3zii 3705]

Damn. . Just their day I guess 

[ClubWhatever 12144]

You have to get him here to try to hold it.  He’s not missing any bats. 

[Ewreck10 288]

Gah, Stevens is in the same funk as Ivan. Get it together boys.

[texastroubadour 1216]

not our night

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Wow. Nice play.  Saved another 2 runs.

Nixon up in the pen? I like it. We’re down 5. Low pressure just throw strikes 

[Horn80 6127]

Frogs are good but we can win this.

Not with this BP pitching.  Get his ass out of there.  

[Fletch 5800]

We’ve hit this dude pretty hard so far. We’ll get ours 

[Cairn Horn88 8265]

Let’s put it together.

[TrashMaster G 17559]

They're leaving 3G in.

[Fletch 5800]

Campbell owes us a single here. Or at least an rbi groundout

[zlavydra 2123]

Daly absolutely crushed that pitch. Check the ball and make sure it's not lopsided 

[Fletch 5800]

I’ll take it. Chip away 

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Good AB by Cambell.  Have to chip away.

Nixon in. Good situation for him to figure it out

I’ll drink to that!

I like going to Nixon here.  Maybe it can be his version of Witt's game vs Tennessee in Omaha.

[txhorns 2409]

Well good inning for Nixon.

[Fletch 5800]

Fuckin a!!! Welcome back, Nixon.

I’d be fine with that! Really hope Tristan gets it together. 

[LTtxfan 49235]

Nice inning Nixon !!!   🤘

 

[zlavydra 2123]

How hard did Stevens get hit? I know there was one bomb, but it seems there were a lot of cheap hits.

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Watching that stuff, it’s just miles better than Tristan’s.  Jumps out of his hand.

An ocean of cheap hits. He didn’t exactly help himself though leaving the ball up like he was

A few hard knocks, but the home run looked wind aided and there were several Texas leaguers mixed in. Wasn’t his day but he didn’t help himself with his command.

[OB3 3628]

Stevens would look a lot better if he just focused on a cutter or sinker. His stuff isn’t overpowering so might as well have as much movement as possible.

He does throw sinker primarily. A sinker left up in the zone though is basically a meat fastball.

[zlavydra 2123]

0-1 pitch to Trey was meat

[texastroubadour 1216]

lost opportunity there

It just looks pretty flat for a sinker. But I guess if it starts that high it’ll end right over the plate

[orangeut 212]

Trey strikes out waaaay to many times

Part of the sacrifice he made to get more power.

[ClubWhatever 12144]

So frustrating 

[orangeut 212]

Come on Nixon

[Hookem2147 21327]

Trey has a strikeout rate of 42% on the year, which is insane considering he’s hitting .300. His batting average on balls in play can not be sustained long term.

Just saw the replay of the Frog bomb. Bad pitch but no worse than the 0-1 meatball to Trey. We have to crush that trash.

[ClubWhatever 12144]

Well so much for the Nixon comeback tour.  

[WBT 20588]

Well shit.  His first inning Nixon attacked the zone the best he had in awhile 

[TwiceHorn 31495]

Whew, boy, Nix.

about to give up more runs

His pitch selection is pretty frustrating. He’s left a lot of dudes on base this year 

Fuck me. Nixon could apparently only go an inning

Yeah Faltine strikes out too much...  minor league coaches are gonna force him to shorten his swing.
