SLEESTAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FlauerPauer]

 

He’s saving something for tomorrow.

 

My memory is probably wrong.

[Brock Beauchamp]

I hear ya, but when looking at the replay, Tucker is already throwing the ball. Arraez is slowww... with a bum knee and ankle.

If it was even a decent throw, Arraez is out by ten feet.

 

Hard to justify that.

[Otto von Ballpark]

 

What does Rocco have against his starters going 6 innings?

Untrue story: when Rocco was a boy, his father told him he was going to start a baseball game and pitch 6 innings -- and Rocco never saw him again.

 

Actually, maybe it was just his uncle. Or some guy on TV. Either way, the memory stayed.

[wsnydes]

 

Every 3rd base coach in the league sends him there with 2 out.

True, but I think the inability to actually get a hit cements it even more.

[FlauerPauer]

 

he has to pitch another inning right?

 

No Rocco needs to pull him.

 

 

Seems Rooco is doing the opposite of what TD wants.

[Aggies7]

 

he has to pitch another inning right?

Yes

[mrtwinsfan]

i DO WANNA THANK DUSTY FOR PITCHING TO CRUZ,  HE IS OLD SCHOOL - IT PAID OFF YESTERDAY , BIT HIM TODAY,  C, mon Eddie start the fun now ,

[USAFChief]

Good job Stashak. Although I had a bit of a Bremergasm when Bregman sent that one to left.

[LVTwinsfan]

Is that direct route across the mound?

probably took a wide turn around third, gotta be better than that

[TFRazor]

 

No Rocco needs to pull him.

 

 

Seems Rooco is doing the opposite of what TD wants.

I see what you did there

[IndianaTwin]

Granted.  Next request?

Eddie homer?

[Otto von Ballpark]

 

Best to run around the mound but that’s up to the runner.

Unwritten rules, nobody is supposed to go over the mound except the pitcher! Arraez was just trying to stay far, far away from the mound...

[Aggies7]

Scattered showers all over the radar. Literally all ofer

[FlauerPauer]

Great so this guy is going to go the rest of the game... 

[Vanimal46]

Here comes the rain...

[Aggies7]

Rosario, do less 

[insagt1]

(I don't think pass interference is reviewable in 2020)

[Mill1634]

Robot umps pls

[Aggies7]

That was a ball

[HokieRif]

its not like these guys are seeing these borderline strikes for the first time... if its close its going to get called

[TFRazor]

Seriously

[woolywoolhouse]

Rosario has to "Josh Donaldson" the next pitch after that call.

[Aggies7]

Well that’s just great , just what we needed 

[Brock Beauchamp]

I don’t mind that call... if the ump hadn’t spent six innings denying the high strike.

[HokieRif]

damn it Rosie... 

[wsnydes]

I guess we'll get to see Cave now, so there's that...

[TFRazor]

So you don't toss Springer for doing what you're supposed to toss him for, but you do toss Eddie?

[Aggies7]

Cave kepler and kiriloff in the outfield in an elimination game.

[Foghorn Leghorn]

How is Manny Gonzalez still employed by the MLB?
