4/11 @ the Angels - The Fat Man bombs the Angels

[jacksonianmarch]

Figgy is the last hope

[example1]

Tough to watch. Perhaps I should go to Death's house and help him with that cake.

[Dojji]

Just make Figgins put it in the air. DOn't let him ground it.

[example1]

Let's not face Kendrick please.

[ORS]

Dude, that pitch, nobody is swinging at it. Let's scrap that one.

[a700hitter]

Just make Figgins put it in the air. DOn't let him ground it.

He's not sharp at all today.

[jacksonianmarch]

Hmm. Gamecast has Paps at 91.5mph per FB, but every FB is see on Fox right now is 94-95.

[Dojji]

Crap. NOT good. Def rather face Willits than Kendrick.

[Death]

Ball four, lets see what he will do.

[example1]

Really Papelbon? Really? 4 pitch walk to Figgins?

[jacksonianmarch]

he cant locate the heat at all

[Dojji]

Paps is rattled.

 

EDIT: That's a pretty good slider here.

[example1]

Excellent slider.

[a700hitter]

I've never seen him this wild.

[example1]

This is too tense for the 5th game.

[Death]

I feel a K coming.

[Dojji]

THROW THE SPLIT.

[a700hitter]

He should go after him with the slider

[example1]

I've never seen him this wild.

 

It is definitely uncharacteristic.

[a700hitter]

I never want him to throw the slider, but today I do

[jacksonianmarch]

he's not finishing his pitches

[example1]

Slider in the dirt please.

[Dojji]

JUST THROW THE SPLIT!

[example1]

Nice AB by Kendrick. How he can differentiate between slider and FB is beyond me. He's a really, really good hitter.

[Dojji]

OK just waste one. Throw one out of the zone to make him take one.

[Death]

Just wait...

[example1]

OK just waste one. Throw one out of the zone to make him take one.

 

 

They're avoiding the split. Maybe because of the runner on 3rd?

[Dojji]

Dang, have to admit -- this is really exciting and I'm nearly playoff-level pumped.

[schillingouttheks]

God help me...

[a700hitter]

He's pounding the zone too much here. I agree with karos. Go out of the zone and make him chase.
