Ugh. You have got to get Simmons there.

Nice play by Danks to start that DP.

Ames Iowa getting a shoutout from Benetti. Heads is an instant fan.

This is the same thing that Weaver has been doing to us for a decade now. He knows he can spot pitches just off of the plate, and we will chase them.

10 pitch inning for Danks.

Both Eaton and Jackson read that wrong off of the bat. Both guys went back before they came in.

Frazier makes that play going towards the line look easy like Ventura did.

A good throw gets him by 10 feet.

Great play by Frazier to make that DP look easy.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 21, 2016 -> 01:31 PM) Abreu isn't even strictly a pull hitter. He's pretty good about going oppo. Yeah, that is why it surprised me. Didn't take advantage of it though.

Speaking of chasing junk...

They are leaving only the 1B on the right side of the IF to pitch to Abreu.

Danks gets out of it. 28 pitches though. Hopefully the pen is fresh.

That pitch before the pop up was crushed.

Oooh, that was close at first.

That is a good pitch to Simmons. You have to expect he would be swinging, but he took it for the walk.

Crushed that fastball, but just foul.

No idea what Escobar was looking for, but safe to say it wasn't the fastball.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 21, 2016 -> 12:19 PM) The fact that we linked to the same video speaks to the heights of that performance. Yeah, that one stuck with me. The Beatles are my absolute favorite music of all time. It is rare that a cover does them justice, and it is even rarer when one blows me away like this one did. My favorite moment is when Price is wailing away with his back to the audience, and Dhani Harrison is watching him with the biggest smile ever on his face. If that doesn't tell you something, I don't know what will.
