4/24 North of the Border

This is why you don't sit guys for no apparent reasons. They go cold suddently.

 

Yup!

[Station 13]

Porcello is throwing almost no fastballs. Really strange

[Jasonbay44]

Porcello has actually looked pretty good. Not many hard hit balls, and has had some s***** defense around him. Toronto only has 2 hits, but has 3 runs

No hits out the infield. Betray by little league baseball.

[jung]

Is this maybe an old timers uni game for the Jays? Aren't these the original Jays unis? Anybody know?

[Station 13]

Porcello is dealing.

[Maxbialystock]

OK. Whoever defended Porcello was right and I was wrong. He had some bad luck and certainly has not been hit hard. Now he is cruising.

 

But will the hitting turn around? In our lifetimes?

[jung]

F-ing Pillar. Tracks it down to RCer. Tracks it down to LCer.

[Jasonbay44]

This team is pathetic at the plate right now. What happened?

[Oscars]

Leon is an automatic out right now

[jung]

Actually Strike 3 to Sandy was not as good a pitch as the ump granted that walk against Porcello that started that whole mess. Still don't know what Sandy is doing in this lineup when Vaz is just sitting there.

[d-money]

Can't do nothing. This team will need to stop the bleeding soon.

Teams go through slumps but 1 run in 23 innings. That's pathetic.

[Station 13]

Nunez is just so bad.

[Jasonbay44]

Amazing catch by Mookie

Luckily, the pitching has not slept.

[jung]

We might need to move our OF in and hope they can throw it to 1st base from wherever they get the ball in the OF.

[jung]

I know I am sounding like I can't get it out of my craw. But its because I can't get it out of my craw. The ump CANNOT give the fist hitter of the inning the base on a walk on the pitch Porcello threw. A pitch in the middle of the AB. OK I don't like it. But I can take it. That was criminal. Changed the entire inning and every GD run they have so far followed. Edited April 25, 2018 by jung

[Jasonbay44]

Hey an extra base hit! Maybe some runs this inning?

[Jasonbay44]

Beni has no chance be Happ

[Jasonbay44]

Hey a run!!

[DontCallMeUncleRico]

Anybody think we overrated Benintendi or is it still too early in his career? There's alot of swing and miss in his game and he fouls off alot of hittable pitches.

[jung]

Atta boy Hanley.

[Maxbialystock]

That's all right. Great double by Holt and huge single, hard hit, by Hanley Ramirez. 3-1. More than that, hope.

[jung]

What are you swinging at JD. That was an awful AB for a RH hitter. At least we are now just a bloop and a bomb away. Rick has to hold them here.

[Jasonbay44]

There has been some awful AB's this game, especially by our best hitters. The whole team was hot at the same time, now they all look cold.

[Oscars]

Beni should not hit 2nd in the lineup against lefties. Maybe we won't when Pedroia returns .

He ain't no more overrated than JD, who stinks tonight, righty vs. lefty. JD is the one getting the big bucks, not Beni.

I'm not worried yet, hes still very young and its only April. I am however a bit worried about how he's looked vs LHP. He was bad last year, and worse this year.

[Natick to NC]

Wasn't going to post in games for a week but this needs to be said ....how in the hell does the pitch coach not sit every one of these idiots down after the second time through Happ and say ....are you honestly going to swing at balls at your chins ? If so we should have left you in hollyweird .
