Becoming?

Not a lot of run on this nerd's fastball.  Pretty flat/straight.  We should tee off on him.

And if we don’t, time to bring back T-Nic

[Hookem2147 22005]

Nice job wiggling out of that jam 

[zlavydra 2142]

Every time they say "Mike Hampton," I picture a certain LHP.

[Hookem2147 22005]

We aren’t very good at getting hit by pitches but I’m pretty confident that should stand.

[Hookem2147 22005]

You know O’Dowd is pressing because he’s wearing is pants down 

[chase25 2048]

He is just lost up there mechanically, not even getting his foot down in time to hit the ball 

[UnhappilyMarried 842]

Come on Gaspo!!

[Horny Bull 2766]

Two runs score on a single by Gasparino.

[zlavydra 2142]

You don't just waltz up to the plate and expect to make contact against Evan Chafee.... unless you're Will Gasparino.

[shadow_operative2.0 16249]

Strong D, Red. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5515]

How about that Gasparino?

[chase25 2048]

Thankfully though we have a nice crop of Freshman, and Gasparino bails out O’Dowd

You seen him hit lately?? 

[Hondo 692]

O'Dowd is coming off it, trying to play hero ball.

Gasparino's swing looked nice and compact there.  Inside out, drove it opposite field.  He keeps that up, he's gonna be dangerous.

[StrippersAndNobelPrizes 855]

Left fielders and center fielders from the other team are going to hate the Yeti Yard. Just wondering what it will take to get thrown out - with BYOB and 0U or aggy in town, this place is going to be a zoo, and totally awesome!🤘🏻

[shadow_operative2.0 16249]

Where'd WHO go?! 

[Bevo&Pevo 5515]

Gasparino..

[Horny Bull 2766]

Harrison on to pitch.

[ztejas 44151]

So, um, starting pitching. Still an adventure.

[Cousin Strawberry 1273]

Does everyone do the “horns up” to left field now?

Probably so haha.

However, it'd be really nice to get an early lead (like 8-1) and let both Harrison and Witt throw with absolutely no pressure.

Is this the “absolutely no pressure” you had in mind?

They are the #1   #4 RPI team in the country...

Yeah… I may need to let go of my hope on these two pitchers. 

[ClubWhatever 12282]

Harrison's injury turned him into a jag

[Dahobbs 18239]

Not ideal.

Harrison comes running in from the bullpen, talking shit to himself like he's got Tourette's, gets teed off on his first pitch, then throws one over the catcher's head.  

Maybe he needs to chill the F out a little bit.

[Horn80 6316]

Interesting mocking sign by St John player on base.

[chase25 2048]

Harrison has everything except velocity on his fastball, much closer to being an asset to this team than Witt is

And I don’t think he was touching over 90 much pre injury. Was always more of a finesse guy.

Pitching staff from SJU is closer to being an asset than Witt at this time.

[Hookem2147 22005]

This might be one of those games where everything hard we hit finds a glove.

[Hondo 692]

Our saving grace in this game is the SJ pitcher throwing straight darts and we're hitting him hard, just right at people.

He has no movement at all on his fastball and we're going to score some runs unless SJ's coach gets smart and pulls him first.

We just need to hold SJ to about 5 or 6 and I think we'll be okay.

 

[Braff Zacklin 13676]

Porter's missing out on a fun season.

[Hookem2147 22005]

Porter is even more frustrating than O’Dowd because he’s working counts and just missing pitches 

[Horny Bull 2766]

3-2 SJ after 3.

[SameSame 1751]

By all means just watch it

[zlavydra 2142]

Borba with the reverse comeback from the 3-0 count.

[HuntinHorn 996]

Downtown Porter Brown has morphed into Shutdown Porter Brown.

[Wishbone 4944]

Looks safe. Unfortunately. 
 

maybe not, lol!

Looks out to me

[Bevo&Pevo 5515]

Take that Scheussler haters.

[Horn80 6316]

Nice play Kimble.

[Hondo 692]

Safe, but can't overturn it based on that.

[shadow_operative2.0 16249]

Proposition to ban reviews in mid-week games...

Only in the top half of the inning for home games...

[SameSame 1751]

Let's get moving here.

East coast guys getting some Texas BBQ.  Good for them.
