Throw Strikes.

[Andy]

Maybe Fontenot can channel his inner Bruntlett and turn an unassisted triple play.

"Channel his inner Bruntlett" becomes another thing I never thought I'd see posted on here.

 

That might actually be the first time all year we've gotten the benefit of doubt on a neighborhood call. It was pretty close but I think he came off.

[E.J.]

Haha. WTF is going on?

[Andy]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Keener98]

And the season has officially gotten even more crazy. Wtf is going on this inning

[NotSoSober]

Nice turn

[BCVM22]

What a hilarious inning.

[Careless]

I've got the sound off. What happened?

[chuckywang]

The Dodgers had a Cubs-like inning right there.

[Andy]

I've got the sound off. What happened?

Apparently Wally Bell, the ump, called time at the plate before that pitch was thrown, only no one seemed to notice until after the play was in motion.

The Dodgers had a Cubs-like inning right there.

Seriously. How many times have we had similar innings where the fans boo the umps lustily at the end of it after getting screwed out of runs? I felt like we were at Wrigley for a second.

[Keener98]

Marmol vs the top of the LA lineup. Im calling it right now. Marmol will blow this game

[E.J.]

Why the hell was Bradley bunting?

Really going out on a limb there with Marmol's season-long inability to throw strikes.
