6/27 @ Atlanta

[Cocos Disciples]

Wake has been super.

[VA Sox Fan]

Wake has been super.

 

No doubt. The heat and humidity in Atlanta are working for his knuckler. Lovin' it.

[092era]

Nice at bat Lugo...

[Cocos Disciples]

Wake's done after 6. Lowell will proceed to pop out on the second pitch of the AB.

[Spudboy]

So Wake is done. Lowell up to ph.

[Cocos Disciples]

Lowell will proceed to pop out on the second pitch of the AB.

 

Check.

 

I would have left Wake in for another inning.

Ye of little faith. Pretty accurate, though!

[092era]

I think Delcarmen makes a good lefty "specialist" type and Masterson make a good righty "specialist" type.

Not at all. Nice outing. Let's hold 'em bullpen!

[Spudboy]

Does MDC start the 8th? Okajima? Ramirez? Saito?

[092era]

I'd put Ramirez or Okajima out there. Either one would be fine. Saito would be fine too lol

What is up with Drew lately? He seems to be striking out at a very high rate.

[VA Sox Fan]

NICE inning for MDC!

[Cocos Disciples]

What is up with Drew lately? He seems to be striking out at a very high rate.

 

I'll take the .976 June OPS.

He is always up and down. He can manage to strike out 3 times and then come in and get a key hit. :dunno:

[Cocos Disciples]

Great AB.

 

Capped off by a triple.

[092era]

YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK!

[BoSox21]

vintage Youk at bat

[Spudboy]

Youk has to be pooped after that triple.

[a700hitter]

I'll take the .976 June OPS.

I just don't remember him striking out at this clip in the past, most of them are called third strikes.

[VA Sox Fan]

YOUK! How sweet!?!!

He hasn't looked like his usual self. I'm sure he'll be fine.

[a700hitter]

Nice shot of Vasquez picking his nose.

[Cocos Disciples]

Just an off day today. He has 20 Ks in 81 PAs this month (.2469/PA), which is on par with 62 Ks in 262 PAs for the year (.2366/PA).

[092era]

That's pretty normal for him. He takes a lot of called third strikes, it comes with the high OBP.

[Cocos Disciples]

MDC done after 1 1/3, nice job.

[092era]

A little strange to see Francona bring in our worst reliever in the 8th of a 1-0 game.

[Cocos Disciples]

RR and Okajima didn't both pitch last night, did they?
