4/19 Cubs(Steele) vs Rays(Wisler) 6:40CST MSN

[CubinNY]

Villar looks like the invisible man.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Feeling really good about Villar getting this run in and fully ready to witness some weak ass pop up or something.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Knew I shouldn't get too high wtf

[Transmogrified Tiger]

yeesh Villar, that last one wasn't even hard to spot

[Tim]

Cowards! I wanted Seiya to face Brooks Raley

[We Got The Whole 9]

Willy has to eventually come through with runners on, right

[Tim]

Now the cowards effectively ended Seiya's hit streak to start his career by walking him three times.

[CubinNY]

This guy has incredible lateral movement on his pitches.

Nah it looks like he will get another AB possibly

You mean his hit streak in games he starts right? He had a game where he PH and went 0-1

[Bertz]

I know the Rays' whole thing is a roster that's greater than the sum of its parts, but man I do not see how this team keeps up with the rest of the AL East this year

I thought he drew a walk and had no official AB that game. If that's not the case, I blame Brett.

Correct, he was IBB'd: https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/gl.fcgi?id=suzukse01&t=b&year=2022

I could've done without that video of the Rays shifting right to where Happ hit the ball prior to the final pitch of the AB.

Yeah he was thrown 2 balls and then intentionally walked. A waste of his PA for the game.

 

But that's still considered a game he played that he did not get a hit, thus the hit streak ends right? That's how I always interpreted it, but I could be wrong.

[CubinNY]

Rucker looks better.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Kittredge was nasty.

[Cubswin11]

Oh well, can’t win em all

Apparently it doesn't. This from Baseball-Reference:

 

The rules regarding hitting streaks count a streak as neither ending nor being increased by one game if the batter doesn't get at least one legitimate chance at a hit, i.e. at least one plate appearance ending in either an at bat or sacrifice fly.

Why the horsefeathers not?

No, it's a plate appearance, but not an official at bat, so it doesn't end the hitting streak.

Bummer. Villar is an horsefeathers for not getting us 1 more Suzuki AB.
