Jesus, Bryant is going to be Bonds. Kid is so patient.

 

do you know that bonds once went like a whole month without swinging and missing?

 

I'm going to need a source for this....

 

gonna have to take my word for it

 

i just remember it being talked about in maybe late april/early may 2004

[Andy]

Here come the flare singles

[Schwarber Fan]

Don't like Phil Coke in this spot. Why not Rosscup?

 

Oh, Motte. Meh.

[Ram1380]

Why is Wood still in this game...?

 

 

jebus Joe.....you take guys out at 80 something pitches that look decent one night....then

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Oh god Wood and Motte are totally going to blow this aren't they.

[DiamondMind]

Time for Motte to blow the game and Cardinals fans to blow up my facebook with "see we get rid of losing players"

[CyHawk_Cub]

This likely won't turn out well. Damn Cardinals.

You know Jason Motte is going to implode here

[DiamondMind]

IM SO NERVOUS. UGHHHHHHHHHH

[Rex Buckingham]

ESPN just said base cloggers. I give up.

To be fair, they were saying it in the context that Rizzo and Bryant run the bases really well

[BrockLanders]

pretty sure they're cheering Motte because he's not very good

[DiamondMind]

why do all our bullpen guys have ticks and twitches

[Guest]

Maddon should not have let Wood go out there to start the inning.

[DiamondMind]

double play pls

duh

[OleMissCub]

Who was that fat pitcher that had that weird tick. Grace imitated him when he pitched at Arizons

[halplm]

oh hey, an out.

[Guest]

Maddon should not have let Wood go out there to start the inning.

 

Wood had retired something like 12 of 13 hitters, was in the 80s for pitch count, and 2 of the first 3 hitters were left handed. He did exactly what he should have there.
