God damnit

[InconspicuousZ28]

Pena....so close to finally getting one out.

[Careless]

awww

[Guest]

So close.

[NotSoSober]

As odd as it would have sounded 2 weeks ago, I'd like to see that Barney fella on deck

[NotSoSober]

And here comes the double play...........

[Schwarber Fan]

Really hope Pena doesn't get discouraged

 

Cmon Baker

 

DEEP FLY

[Schwarber Fan]

[expletive] this team

 

nothing will ever change

[NotSoSober]

And here comes the double play...........

Such an easy call

[UMFan83]

Baker vs. a righty FTL

[Sammy Sofa]

FOR [expletive]'S SAKE.

[SouthSideRyan]

I really hope Jeff Baker doesn't get trotted out there vs. righties all year due to one hot month

[laurens]

Of [expletive] course.

[Yeti]

[expletive]!

[Sammy Sofa]

What an incredibly frustrating game.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Who didn't see that coming?

[UMFan83]

A .650 OPS player from one side of the plate should not be forced into an every situation kind of player.

[illiniguy]

I am so happy Quade is batting Geo 8th and now ignoring that Baker struggles against righties. :banghead:

screw statements like this

 

we all saw it coming, but it doesn't make it any less infuriating.

Ha the funny thing is, against righties this year (not including today)

 

.267/.313/.333/.646

Baker vs. a righty FTL

Is everyone still on board of the Mike Quade fan club? Not that we really had much off the bench anyways. Is Max Ramirez doing antying in the minors? Call him up

Oh, but he's had something like 2 good games against this season! That totally, totally makes using him in this situation (after injuring himself the day before, no less) make all kinds of sense with Quade-logic.

There was no way they were going to give Soto anything to hit in that situation. The bat was taken out of the hands of one of the team's best hitters because of his position in the lineup.

I still would've rather had Baker up instead of Dewitt though.

Pretty much. Anyone expecting that is an [expletive].
