wegner Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I remember in Spring Training we knocked Ohtani out of the game and then they put him back in and we knocked him out of the game again. He doesn't scare me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win and you take 2/3 in a place you typically struggle while establishing the potential for a much-needed winning road trip before returning for 19 straight against your division. Lose and it's just another in a series of "one step forward, two back." This would certainly be a nice game to win. It would be great if the bats stay hot tonight against a good pitcher rather than last night being just a one off performance against mediocre pitching.

Don't be a buzzkill. At least let us enjoy ourselves a little before the game actually starts. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Side Hit Men Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Assuming no costly errors / unearned runs, should be a low scoring game. Bullpens relatively rested, Kelly and Loup the only ones possibly facing restrictions among each team's top 3 relievers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t look totally lost. I’ll take it as a trending upward sign, along with yesterday and the 5 hit game pre-IL stint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
