Brown Satin Buck Turner is your bench. It's also a coveted item discounted to $279 in the hunting section at Dick's Sporting Goods.

The key is to stop Yelich and Stanton...And Hefner to stop throwng Meatballs. It can be done.

If we could have gotten that call at 1B for EY (and/or the bunt down from Hefner) there's no telling how big that inning could have gone.

This one looks good so far. I won't accept anything less than a four game sweep here. As a matter of fact what we need is a ten game winning streak. Starts now.

I'd swap out Ike for Tejada immediately, go with Brown/Turner/Recker at 1B until they figure out how to get Dykstra here or Duda back.

If we lose this game because of a tailor made DP ground ball 2 run error I may need a vacation from this team.

Hef has that shitty uneven inning, gets the DP grounder, Q, who is usually steady, boots it. Could have gotten out of it at 3-1. Instead its 3-3. These guys are driving me crazy.

It could not have been an easier DP!
Grrr.

Just hand them the fucking game and get it over with.

- can't get bunts down
- can't close out innings
- let runners run wild
- 5 walks allowed plus a HBP (many with 2 strikes)
- 100 pitches before the 6th inning
- 5 runs allowed on only 4 hits

Hefner was clearly done way before he got the hook. Rare this season, but Collins has to take some of the blame for this loss.

Ronny was pointing out about pushing guys past the point of fatigue at the time, but i think he was talking about Harvey and late September. But I guess with the extra day of rest Terry figures they can go longer in the game? But you do that when guys are cruising not push them to the fatigue point in pressure spots. I feel like that's where guys get hurt.

I was too but they never do what I scream.

I just watched the replay on the Davis double and the camera work was impeccable and made that play look just as exciting as it was.

Josh and Howie say Marasnick was safe on that steal. I'm not so sure. If he indeed was, it's because Murphy missed the tag, not because he got in ahead of it.

We were owed one from earlier so I'm not going to feel guilty about that one.
Plus, anything that keeps Stanton from potentially coming up in the 9th inning is OK with me.

It's all about framing apparently. saw a clip somewhere of a ball down the middle called a ball because it tricked the catcher into lunging for it.

That pitch selection to Yelich was weird though wasn't it? Particularly with the changeups?
