5/5 @ Chicago

[jung]

So now it's a 3 inning game, if Rick can end the bottom 6th without more damage. Pitched a pretty good game, but why does Leon keep calling pitches that leave the park?

 

It appears that this year, anything on the barrel or even part of the barrel in the air is going. its only a matter of how far. Wait till we get to real hitting weather.

[vegasbob]

Jackie is wrong when he tries to call pitches not hit them.

[Station 13]

Pearce is such a waste of space.

[vegasbob]

At least Leon was able to take the walk, clogging the bases in front of Beni , Bogey and JDM.

[vegasbob]

Pearce, Bradley, Leon all combined are hitting about .430, just somewhat more than Chavis and JDM individually

Come on X. Be the assassin.

Messed that rally up with a bouncing DP ball

[d-money]

Need the BP to come through here.

[vegasbob]

Rather than throwing a lead off walk and having to try all those pitches, just give the hitter 4 fingers and save the energy expended.

[d-money]

Workman with a walk. That’s not how you wanna start an inning.

[vegasbob]

Brandon then woke up and came on pretty strong to shut off the White Sox

[vegasbob]

Devers is a trip on the bases but highly effective this time

[vegasbob]

Moreland gets the rbi's, even without much of an average. Just avoided the DP but it all counts.

[vegasbob]

That is 20 K's for Pearce in 50 AB's, a 40%K rate. Can't carry the WS MVP much further. All that was needed was a flyball to score an insurance run. Steve cannot make any contact Edited May 5, 2019 by vegasbob

[Station 13]

Not even a Betts pinch hitting appearance.

Now , Ed Nunez hitting in a key spot of the game while Mookie is ready ?

[OH FOY]

Salami, lets go!

[OH FOY]

hahahaha

[Jasonbay44]

Good ABs by bottom of order

[vegasbob]

More like baloney than salami, but it rolls to third. scores a run and gets it done. Nunez is the rare example of a .160 hitter , subbing for a .158 hitter (Leon) and getting it done. The analytics history kept Nunez in and Betts sitting. That is funny. ( Nunez's 5 for 9, now 6 for 10, history vs Herrara)

[vegasbob]

Another run on the wild walk by Beni. Now Bogey gets his second try at a bases loaded situation in two innings. Time to bust it up Bogey.

we all know Nunez isn’t going to hit .160 all season. He can hit, he’s just a dumb ass and bad fielder

[OH FOY]

Again with 2 outs, nice.

[Swiharts Ghost]

That ball could have ended bennies career .The whitesox should DFA that POS !!!

[OH FOY]

Told you Salami.

[Jasonbay44]

Man the white Sox f***ing suck

[vegasbob]

Thanks, Bogey, you made the best of it with the missing salami

[d-money]

This offense showing the explosion they showed last year. It’s about time!!!

[OH FOY]

Thats Game.

[Oscars]

A good time for a 7 spot inning !
