Our terrible defensive catcher throws out the base-stealer. Who would have thought...

Sanchez has been better than the brutal defender reputation he has garnered. 

Regarding the Celestino catch, I think Buxton catches the ball without a dive, but not running toward home. The runner probably scores.

I vote for #2, but Dick has chosen #1.

Hard to believe the same goalie got a shutout in game 1. Nice job, Kirill. 

[LewFordLives]

They should have sent Winder back out. They gotta start stretching out the starters to avoid exposing the bullpen.

[bighat]

Helluva effort by Winder today.

Who needs Sonny Gray or Dylan Bundy or Bailey Ober? This kid's the real deal.

[MadHits]

Joe Smith not messing around ?

[RickOShea]

Daddy, daddy.............Can we see Theilbar pitch tonight?   I hope not son.  I want to keep this night as    pleasant as possible.

[snotboogie]

Is it ok to really like watching sidewinders pitching?

What if your OBP was already 1.000?

I sit corrected.

[MadHits]

[AceWrigley]

I was going to say, Celestino for the single . . . and . . . there it is.

[MadHits]

[MadHits]

[AceWrigley]

A lot of weak contact from Urshela recently. 

[MadHits]

Duff man let's go

[AceWrigley]

Lewis makes the play.

[Buffy the Twins Fan]

Duffey's walk-up song is so iconic

[LewFordLives]

Please not Pagan in the 9th.

Prob will be ?

[stringer bell]

Duffey with 94 mph heat.

[Buffy the Twins Fan]

Wow the fact that Duffey's fastball is up to 94mph is very encouraging!
