More outside pitches to story. More swings and misses. it’s clear that Story’s trying to hit a homer. He’s looking for a ball middle-in and Bassitt knows that too.
You can just see it in the way he pitches. He’s giving up hits, he’s not automatically shutting down games anymore. He’s giving up hits but still winning the game.
Chapman seems to be slowing down a bit. He’s getting old. As somebody who’s been watching him basically all year. Even as much as a year ago, he’s lost 2-3 MPH.
Watching Connor Wong play is obnoxious. He can’t hit. Can’t throw runners out. Doesn’t know the strike zone. I’d rather watch litteraly anybody else play catcher.
