Im not gonna lie. Brenley just sounded really dumb there

[E.J.]

Bob trying to explain we're better off having the bottom of the order up instead of Lee and Ramirez. Nice try Bob.

[inari]

Hey Theriot, pretend it's July of 2007.

[bcruise]

Theriot makes a productive out.

[inari]

At least it's only one out.

[Roast]

Good bunt.

 

Okay, Soto - Do this dag nab thang!

[Omar]

Howry warming up? Well, this game is over.

[E.J.]

Howry warming up. We're screwed.

[CoolHandLuke]

Rudy Seanez is heavily tatooed.

[TBone]

Why do I have the feeling even if we score here Howry comes in and blows a save?

 

And I posted that before I knew he was warming up.

Z on deck. Great. Do we have any players?

[BCVM22]

Because it's the most likely outcome.

[UMFan83]

I'd rather have the bottom of the order up. You know why? Instead of having my best hitters up there with the game on the line, I'd rather have my worst players give up a precious out so more bad hitters can try to drive them in. Edited April 13, 2008 by UMFan83

The sac bunt actually decreased our chances of winning. Awesome.

We all know that a successful sac bunt lowers your chances of winning, but it still is depressing to see the fangraph spell it out:

Just like they say. The only time a sac bunt is smart is when theres runners on first and second with 0 outs and you are playing for one run.

[TBone]

Call me strange, but I'd almost rather see Z up there than Pie.

[imb]

love soto's patience.

[BCVM22]

Z PHing...

 

soap drop it, I'm calling a hit here.

[UMFan83]

Gee, I wonder why they are pitching around Soto.

[bcl412]

Z three run homer.

[JimSorgi]

GEOVANY SOTO!!!
