Too bad Machi wasn't in to pitch the last out of the 5th. That would guarantee a Giant win today.

Wheels falling off Cleveland

33 pitch inning!

Belt is striking out a LOT this year

 

[Band of Brothers]

Pitchers have stopped throwing Belt inside. He needs to adjust and slam a ball or two to left or center.

Maybe they'll tie it up and then we'll put him in

Well, maybe he'll do it now?

OK,that was cruel

 

[Stokes1931]

Belt is striking out a ton! He is on pace for 172 K's (with 600 AB's)

Love the power, and the glove, and I can live with the average.

Great minds think alike!

Perhaps it goes with the territory, a lot of HR hitters strike out a lot. A strikeout is usually not much worse than another out, and it's better than a DP. They only suck when you need to move a runner over or get a sac fly.

Yeah, I'd say Belt's glove is looking damn good today

They also take at least three pitches. So they are better than FPOM and SPOM

Good inning by Machi

 

[Stokes1931]

Machi with the quick six-pitch SDI!
