Game Thread: 4.23 Gnats @ The Strat

[LHG]

Strat starting the 7th.

Turn it over to the bully, Noggin!

Ugh, leadoff walk.

I was nervous about him batting in the 6th. Bochy seems to really believe in continuing to run the guy out with less than 100 pitches have been thrown. I like that idea, in theory, so as to save the bullpen, but it doesn't work too often. Hope Stratton proves me wrong.

 

[calsnowskier]

Stratton still has some things to work on.

Paying attention to runners is one of those things.

 

[LHG]

This is a punt game, apparently. Dyson getting up in the pen.

You know Bochy is going to lean on him, regardless of whether he splinters in Bochy's hand or holds the team up.

 

[LHG]

Hope Stratton can get Eisenhower's opponent out without a run crossing.

 

[LHG]

Nope.

 

[calsnowskier]

Lead off singles...

There is something about them, but I forget what...

[Hangman]

Okay lets get that run back and another one too.

I actually think it was a leadoff walk, which is considerably worse.

My brain-to-finger filter didn’t work on that one. “Lead off walk” is what I meant to type...

Watson

Watson

He is certainly earning that 2M...

 

[calsnowskier]

This guy is NOT a closer...

 

[1phlapdown]

Don't lose your cool!!

 

[Stokes1931]

Strick and Bweezey must text between games...

Strick and Bweezey must text between games...

They are very similar, body-wise.

But Strick apparently is reverting back to a 1-pitch pitcher. And that one pitch isn’t anything special.

 

[stanford the manford]

that slider looked pretty sweet

 

[calsnowskier]

He just needed 15 pitches to get warmed up, apparently.

 

[stanford the manford]

great win and good 3rd out by strick
