That was a shitty 0-2 pitch

Wasn't terrible but definitely more elevated than he probably wanted. Good hitting too.

What do you guys expect Leody to  do there? 109mph exit velocity, that was a rocket. 

Read the ball off the bat and take a better route and field the ball to prevent extra bases.  To your point it had to be obvious off the bat he wasn't going to get there to catch it.

Thanks blue

He thought he was going to catch it. Better angle wouldn’t have sucked.

[gofuckyourself 9225]

What? Gotta be out there.

[shadow_operative2.0 16324]

Fuck, he looked out. 

[gofuckyourself 9225]

Holy shit. Unbelievable he didn't get tagged.

[shadow_operative2.0 16324]

Nope, safe. Shit. 

[Fudbelty 2810]

So close.

[dcar00 15114]

horrible throw from Lowe.  Good throw gets him.  

[Surly Bevo 25962]

Never tagged him...fast little fucker

[Vic Mackey 48144]

What a noodle arm throw. That's an easy out.

[tfoolry 8367]

Terrible glove movement.  Had him. 

[Firemans4Horn 18552]

Welp, bats need to get going. Gallen has got in a groove the last two innings. 

[Fudbelty 2810]

We’re fine. This is their only inning.

He's only thrown two innings and we scored 2 in the first one.

[gofuckyourself 9225]

Need a DP here..this inning is going way too long.

huh? the throw was 3 feet up the line and low.  just horrible.

[gofuckyourself 9225]

Fuck yo taco

[Surly Bevo 25962]

Way too many pitches were already happening and then that FC poured gas on

[gofuckyourself 9225]

C'mon Nate. End it.

[ztejas 44328]

Gonna need to score a lot tonight or going to need the pen to pull one out of their ass. 

[gofuckyourself 9225]

Atta boy 

Let's put up some big numbers.

[Fudbelty 2810]

Get it back.

[dcar00 15114]

well.  gotta answer big.

[Surly Bevo 25962]

Yea that throw from Lowe was absolute shit.  Slow to let it go and offline.

he's got to play closer if he is going home with that runner.  bad all the way around.  Heim did everything he could.

He fell forward on ball so couldn’t tag. No big deal. 

[Vic Mackey 48144]

All started with a very weak infield hit. Fuck.

[Pato del Muerto 53697]

Throw was up the line but there was no reason for Jonah to keep his foot on the plate and stretch for it instead of taking a step up the line to field it on balance and be able to swipe tag. May have had him.

the throw was horrible and low which is why he's falling forward. He's trying to catch the shitty throw from Lowe. no big deal.

it doesn't work that way from that distance.  Lowe needs to make a better throw from 90 feet.  he's not a good fielder.

[gofuckyourself 9225]

Jeez c'mon Marcus.

Not the answer we want so far.

[Vic Mackey 48144]

Yep. Good pitch and bad luck.

I just hope this doesn't fluster Nate. We can't let him fall apart in in the next few innings. And now their guy is getting in a groove

[dcar00 15114]

cmon Corey.  need ya.

[Fudbelty 2810]

Gallen is dealing now.

he’s a 2023 gold glove finalist and had a .998 fielding percentage this season. He’s improved tremendously defensively.

Not too worried about Nate.

More that Gallen is starting to lock in.

[Fudbelty 2810]

Good walk.

Let’s go, kid.

[BigDHornfan 6638]

I hate smoltz so hard

[Surly Bevo 25962]

I'll take Baltimore Corey if the outcome is the same.

[dcar00 15114]

lets go kid

[gofuckyourself 9225]

C'mon rook, do it again.

Attaboy.

Bring em home Adolis.

[shadow_operative2.0 16324]

Whatever works. 

[Fudbelty 2810]

THE KID!!!!!

The crazy thing as he does another fine piece of hitting is he really isn't even officially a rookie.  

[dcar00 15114]

alright adolis.  get ya some.
