Their lineup is basically 9 Duensings.

[Brian]

nice retaliatory jersey HBP

[TMan92]

Strikeout coming.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Almora for a switch hitter??

[UMFan83]

Oh god Almora? 1-2-3 DP coming up

[Brian]

you jag

[TMan92]

God he sucks

[UMFan83]

Great work Albert

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Good call Joe

[Schwarber Fan]

All time brutal decision by Maddon to PH Almora there.

[soccer10k]

At least Albert only hit into one out.

[TMan92]

Good call Joe

 

Horrendous

[UMFan83]

Like yes I’m overreacting but I genuinely went from feeling great about this inning to being concerned that we won’t score a run just by seeing Almora walk up

[soccer10k]

Why are we PHing Almora for Happ? That’s an insane decision.

[Brian]

Almora is definitely getting another big AB against a righty reliever too

[Gilby]

Hmm, I actually didn't realize how bad Happ has been vs lefties. I don't mind that move now honestly.

[itisallpartoftheplan]

Essentially choosing Caratini over Happ. Since Albert could’ve bat in the 8 spot.

[UMFan83]

Contreras has these ABs with risp where it looks like the idea of walking is far from his mind. He’s gonna swing until something happens

[soccer10k]

Plus they said Caratini is on deck. Let Happ bat and have Almora PH for the pitcher if it gets there.

[Brian]

welp

[UMFan83]

Yeah but Almora is 1 for his last 24 and hits a lot of soft contact and a lot of ground balls
