Need Sam to get on here so Mune at least hits with somebody on base.

That umpire looked very unsure about that call.

Bunting for Peters and Romo is wild.

Saw a video today on YouTube about bridge relievers. Basically, they're guys like Newcomb who you rely on to get you more than 3 outs late in games. Taylor and Newcomb are on the list of relievers most used for bridge outings, where they go multiple innings in a game, but don't close the game out. It's a method used by the Padres, Brewers, and Sox, teams that don't necessarily have innings eaters in the rotation. It's worked well for us so far, but you have to wonder the toll it takes on guys' arms. Those other teams also don't use their closer as a bridge reliever like the Sox do. Brewers have Megill and Uribe. Padres obviously have Mason Miller.

I do find it encouraging that he has some of the most patient PAs even if the results aren't always there. He's at least taking walks. That's very encouraging for a rookie. Hopefully the extra base hits come later.

He's looking for the splitter. He's so late on the fastball.

Maybe we should have done that with PCA.

He's hitting like it this series. He was struggling the last couple of series and I guess we woke him up.

Shoulda just put him on instead of wasting 10 pitches if you weren't willing to attack him after you got to 2 strikes.

Fedde might not even last 2 innings at this rate. Who the hell is gonna pitch the rest of the game? lol
-
8/18 Gamethread: Crosstown Classic Game 5, 7:05 CT. Hudson vs. Gausman
Fedde really playing with fire being in the zone so much. That last sweeper was way too high when Romo wanted it buried.

You don't understand, Seiya is right handed Ohtani.

PCA is probably having the best crosstown series since Abreu in 2020.

Might as well just walk PCA

Romo showing up Rogers with these challenges.

That helps

Fedde is gonna have to face PCA with runners on base unless he gets 2 here.

Very similar to the one that Sam just had.
