How can the coaches not teach Jung to lay off the sweeper / slider?

If we get 2 shutout he's done his job.  I'm guessing he doesn't go more than 2.

He’ll go more than 2 if he’s doing his job. I’ll guess 3.1.

The ump called one 4 inches off the plate to start the ab. Probably didn’t help him. 

[dcar00 14023]

gurriel is such a bitch.  it was almose middle middle.

[Firemans4Horn 17792]

Eat shit Gurriel. 

[dcar00 14023]

damn jung. way to pick it.

[ztejas 43244]

I could watch Jung throw to 1st all day.

[Redneck Mutha 7923]

Pitching ahead is good.

[gofuckyourself 8115]

Gray cruising.

[Firemans4Horn 17792]

Jon Gray wants to start game 6 (if there is one). 

[shadow_operative2.0 15820]

He pulled a Semien too. 

[dcar00 14023]

OK Gray goes another. pitch count is very low.

[Surly Bevo 24692]

Oh GOD, Will Smith

[Vic Mackey 46919]

Jung has been so fucking good at 3rd

[SpiralOut 1809]

Great job by Gray.  Damn we needed him to be solid and he's delivering.

huh?

[Surly Bevo 24692]

Gray for one more, Smoltz is actually right amongst all his words, Gray probably isn't throwing 98 if he is trying to go 6-7 innings as a starter but here as a reliever only 20 pitches in he can come out for more more and turn it loose.

I’ll guess 4. Give Sborz the 8th, and Leclerc the 9th, skip Chappy.

They showed him warming in the bullpen

[TexasGary 833]

Seager, Garcia, and Carter. Let's get some runs!!

Me too. I love Josh, glad we have him and he’s a pleasure to watch. Just needs some patience at the plate. He’s WAY too aggressive.

Makes sense. So onto the bullpen. Who starts Games 4 and 5?  Evo and Monty?  I assume so. 

[Surly Bevo 24692]

Smith and Castro being shown in the bullpen, if either of those guys show up next this game is high.

[Pato del Muerto 52321]

If grey needs to be held back for a game 7 start, might as well stretch him today. 

[ztejas 43244]

Oh man I thought that was gone for a second. 

[gofuckyourself 8115]

Great AB Garcia

[Surly Bevo 24692]

Solid AB

[Vic Mackey 46919]

Is Smoltz going to walk down and fuck this pitcher? Jfc shut up.

Nevermind my game 6 call.

Nate and Monty throw 5 and 6, right?

[Firemans4Horn 17792]

Not sure why they didn’t bring in a lefty here against Carter. 

[Herbie Hancock 7302]

Back spasms are fixable in short time. Max also only threw 36 pitches tonight which is a typical bullpen session between starts.

[TexasGary 833]

It seems like teams throw a great deal of pitches to us up in the zone. I wonder if that is the scouting report on us.

Makes more sense. Was doing 4 days’ rest math in my head for Evo. I imagine Heaney gets start tomorrow. If Game 7 is the case, I’m riding J Gray tonight. It’s incredibly important to get this win.

Wiz Khalifa back on the mound.

Yep, my days off math was off. 

[gofuckyourself 8115]

Wow make up call ump?

That was ball 3

Don't make a shit for Carter.

It is for sure for guys like Garcia, heim, and Lowe. 
 

jung and taveras it’s low sliders, semien it’s outside. 

[Firemans4Horn 17792]

This guys zone doesn’t even make sense
 

 

carter don’t care. Dumbass coaching bringing a righty there. 

[Surly Bevo 24692]

Jeez that was the worst one yet

C'mon Garver. Huge spot here.

the 3-2 ball call to Lowe was insanely bad. 

[Surly Bevo 24692]

That was best pitch Castro has thrown

Do not do it again Mitch goddamnit

it has been for a while.  and it is for a lot of baseball now.  the zone up was expanded(and in my mind correctly) a few years ago.  6 or 7 years ago tons of these high FB strikes and even curves would be balls.

basically they stopped giving the maddux/smotlz 4 inches off both sides of the plate strike but gave the pitcher the high strike.
