Time to get someone warming up... Mchugh losing a little touch this inning. Maybe take a quick stroll to the mound.
Hmmmmm, third time around was not the charm, right???? Look at numbers my friend, look at numbers, .333 third time around. This game is over, leave the guy there, what is one or two more runs as we are not going to score more than one. LMAO, maybe Hinch NEEDED TO HAVE SOME ONE WARMING UP, WHY? Because guys hit over .333 third time around. Remember, McHugh is a good number 4 pitcher, nothing more, and those guys can't go pitching for long in the game.
Did he win it twice? I thought he did. But you are right. I'm not taking much stock in how Reed starts with us. If he is 0-20 then I'll reconsider haha.
Every ball park has unique rules. Minute Maid Park: Batted ball in flight strikes yellow line on fence or top of railing in left center field and rebounds onto the playing field: In Play.
Hitting yellow line doesn't - HR unless it leaves the field of play. This is true throughout baseball.
I'm gonna go to sleep if they don't get a run this inning. I hate these late west coast games so much.
So now that you have seen the picture of the breaking ball over the plate that Trout hit for a DP in the first inning, should they have walked him intentionally? It was clearly not high and outside like you suggest. Simple yes or no question.
Good battle by McHugh. Unlucky weak pop up started the whole thing. We should have walked Trout, at least he wouldn't of been on second... Not sure what Hinch was thinking. For those crying for the bullpen... It's the 6th inning, your pitcher is under 80 pitches... At some point this season, a starting pitcher will have to go rather deep into a ball game. Blasphemy I know... But to wear down a bullpen this early when it's not like McHugh had been getting shots hit off the wall. I'm glad Hinch left him in.
