Dude JHey is a line drive machine.....it just makes me so damn happy

[We Got The Whole 9]

Bote has to swing if a fastball comes in the zone

[TMan92]

Booooooote

[BigSlick]

Poor Bote

[Schwarber Fan]

Bote down, Happ up. Needs to happen.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Bote is miserable to watch. Both at the plate and in the field. A demotion might help him loosen up and get back on track.

[BigSlick]

Bote is slugging .176 and K'ing in over 50% of his at bats in the last 15 games. These do not seem to be good things.

[BigSlick]

Good lord this team dreams about wasting lead off doubles. iTs like its their kink

[TMan92]

Dammit

[We Got The Whole 9]

What was Javy doing?

Must've underestimated Renfroe's speed

[We Got The Whole 9]

Wtf Javy get your head right

[Schwarber Fan]

Lester doesn’t have it today, nor does he have any BABIP fortune. Conditions don’t help either.

[We Got The Whole 9]

12 horsefeathering hits good lord they are all over Lester

[TMan92]

.617 OPS kills one.

[NotSoSober]

12 horsefeathering hits good lord they are all over Lester

He's not been good, but they're not really crushing the ball

[NotSoSober]

Love me some Oppo Javy. Bring it

[Schwarber Fan]

Wow, hit it high and watch it fly

[Brian]

Just imagine the horror show when Brach comes into this game

[itisallpartoftheplan]

0/3 with 3 Ks for Russell

 

Robel rotting on the bench.

[BigSlick]

0/3 with 3 Ks for Russell

 

Robel rotting on the bench.

To be fair, thats a very Robel line almost 1/2 the time

[Schwarber Fan]

This game is a true test of overcoming ridiculous BABIP

[TMan92]

Hold the damn ball
