It's like clockwork with Pressly. Give him a 2 run lead in the 9th and he'll give up a run before getting the close.
I totally prefer mints to gum. I do love a good longboard though, I've had an 11' Robert August for about 25 years.
This is what happens when your offense coasts the entire game yet again, expecting the pitching to pull out the W. A win's a win but this feast or famine hitting will be a huge problem come playoffs.
"Coasting" and "expecting" leads me to believe you think that players don't care or are putting forth subpar effort. Is that what this is?
Like clockwork around here. Did we struggle because we were facing one of the best pitchers in baseball, of course not, it was because we just didn't care. No pitcher opposing us is ever viewed as being actually good.
That little detail seems to evade some. The guy on the mound was the ASG starter for the AL. Expecting to score 5 or more off the guy is a bit silly. The dude had a sub 2 era for large portions of the season.
Cease 5 IP, 4 ER 2.20 ERA 14-8 if the score stands The Cy Young race is officially over. Pitchers with 3 Cy Youngs and 3 No Hitters 1. Sandy Koufax 2. Justin Brooks Verlander End of List.
