    What’s with that change-up throw to home by Weber!!? Looks like was throwing a fade to the corner of the end zone.
  2. PackLandVA
    Not following the connection with “Alabama”?

    I tuned in with Hoerner on second, two out and a full count to Morel. Morel gets hosed on a called strike that had to be a few inches off the plate. In comes Rowan Wick and a couple of quick singles, an error and a HR. Suddenly it’s 4-0. I vomited a little in my mouth, tuned out and went for a run.

    Would they cast him off too if TLR decided to come out of retirement again?
  5. PackLandVA
    An error, an out and a Happ dinger. No-hitter gone. Shut out gone. Cubs up 2-1!
  6. PackLandVA
    What is a “grant kipp”?.

    My thread wasn’t supposed to be a game thread. It was supposed to be just commentary on Assad. I agree this thread had the better title.
  8. PackLandVA
    Didn’t see the 5th inning, but in the prior innings I thought Assad showed well. Had some runners on base in every inning. But for his first start, he didn’t seem to really get rattled. A lot of pitchers in their first starts would’ve unraveled. So kudos to him for giving up runners but not runs.
  9. PackLandVA
    Assad gives up a lead off double, but escapes without giving up a run: K, pop out, weak ground out. He’s living a bit dangerously, but showing poise.
  10. PackLandVA
    A shaky third inning with a hit and a couple of walks. But he escapes, leaving the bases juiced without giving up a run. Sixty pitches through 3 innings. Hopefully he can go at least one more inning.
  11. PackLandVA
    Follows up the K of Pujols with a full count BB. Then on 3-0, the other future HoFer (ya’ know, intangibles, and he plays the game the right way) swings at ball four. Then pops out weakly to first. Two innings in the book and looking decent.
  12. PackLandVA
    The kid through a 1-2 heater on the outside corner, and the home plate ump gave him the call. Assad Ks future HoFer for his first MLB strikeout. Take that ball out of play!!!
  13. PackLandVA
    Couple of hard hit FOs, so there’s that.
  14. PackLandVA
    ….because they seem to lose when I start a game thread. But, the kid showed some moxie in the first inning. Gave up a lead off late swing double followed by a wild pitch. Man on third, nobody out. -gives up a late swing but hard hit ball to SS (playing halfway) and runner holds; -gives up late swing, hard hit ball to 1b which Higgins throws out runner at home. -gives up chopper to SS to get out of the inning without allowing run to score. Thirteen pitches, 8 strikes.

    At least knee/leg issues don’t ever lead to arm/shoulder issues. So Tony dodged a bullet there.
  16. PackLandVA
    Nice comeback win yesterday when they very easily could've lost. But that's soured by today's pen performance.
  17. PackLandVA
    Bullpen failed Steele, as did the offense, so far.
  18. PackLandVA
    Thank you Yan Gomes for that perfect laser throw.
  19. PackLandVA
    Franimal with another hit. His batting stance reminds me of Vlad Sr. the way he holds the bat high near his temple and waggles it.
  20. PackLandVA
    Happ with career HR #100!! 1-0 cobs!
  21. PackLandVA
    Madrigal led off the first with a 13 pitch FO to RF. He swung at 9 of the first 12 pitches, which according to pitchtraxx, all would've been called strikes. The only pitch out of the strike zone was pitch 13 which was borderline, too close to take, and he flew out. Great AB for an out.
  22. PackLandVA
    Steele Ks the first three Brewers on 16 pitches, two looking on great pitch locations. LET'S SWEEP 'EM!!
  23. PackLandVA
    Mark Buehrle says hello.
  24. PackLandVA
    First pitch of the 9th is a rocket down the third base line for a double. Perfect no-no is over.
  25. PackLandVA
    Drew Rasmussen has a perfect game for the Rays thru 8 innings on only 79 piches.
