86 isn’t particularly close. Don’t GAF about third time through. Tonkin isn’t good any time through the order. Yes, a 5 run lead is the perfect time to let him go another inning.
I’m trying to run through the excuses some have given for Rocco’s quick hook to try and make sense of it. 86 pitches, not too many. We’ve miraculously scored 6 runs, can’t be that. The season is lost, can’t be that. What else
Damn we need to score about 8 more with Gulf of warming. Rocco still doing his 5 and fly nonsense with the season lost. Will be so happy when someone else is calling the shots from the dugout
