Amazing what good defense can do for a pitcher.

Good lord. Fastball. Fastball. Fastball. Fastball. Fastball. 90-92, no command.

Now that's what a nasty breaking ball looks like.

I'm shocked Davidson fouled that off. Improved hitter.

Infield in down 4 runs in the 4th inning as the home side, will never, ever make sense to me.

Yoan Moncada is really fast.

Nice to see Yoan's OBP creeping up again.

Turn him loose.

I mean that curve just isn't that good. It's flat vertically. Not many swinging strikes generated off it, if any, so far tonight.

Another meatball.

Christ I thought for sure TA was going to chuck that ball into the backstop.

Jesus, he just missed it. Thompson isn't seeing the ball at all, must be a really bad sun angle.

So where is this "lights out" off speed stuff? I see a guy with a shit fastball, no command, little control, and a flat breaking ball and a shit changeup. If you were scouting this guy on the Juco fields you'd think "huh, might be a nice 10th rounder". Seems like a mental midget as well.

He looks the same as he has all year imo.

It's unreal how the Mariners are 15 games over with a RD of +17. That is the 14th best differential in MLB. The Mariners currently have the 3rd best winning percentage in MLB. These wins are "already banked" of course but they are in for some serious regression. I'd be shocked if they were better than 5 over .500 the rest of the way.

Speaking of the devil...goodness.

Just not sure how he can make it work with a 90 mph fastball, and that's on a hot gun.

look man I don't get on you much but you do this constantly and it's just really poor etiquette and lack of respect for everybody else that posts here: READ THE FUCKING THREAD YOU ARE POSTING IN. How about you just like/thanks the four or so posts before you that mentioned the same thing?

No need to spend any money on the pen until 2020.

Yolmer made a nice play an a bad hop. Jose, as a pro 1B, has to catch that ball. It was not a difficult scoop.

Unless Jones can find a 2nd pitch he's going to get lit up like this.

I feel badly for Lopez.

Jose throwing his glove at the ball, that's bad technique.

It does appear that the ump pissed himself. wtf?

awful hitting conditions now, should help the Sox close this one out. Been a well played game so far, nice and crisp, let's keep it going.
