That swing on 2-0 changed the entire at bat. He really can't layoff the slider from lefties.

Teel just can't figure out left handers this year. Swings at way too many bad pitches.

That looks off the base

Got lucky that was right at Montgomery

Ok put Richards back in please.

Using him for an inning is fine, but trying to stretch him for 2 is not a good idea. They just came off the 4 days of rest. They should be able to use 2-3 of the good relievers today and be fine the rest of the series.

Will is really gonna let Richards face Vladdy twice?

He's giving up almost 2 homers per 9. That's terrible.

That's out

Richards pitched for them for a long time, didn't he? He probably does have some kind of tell. He's mostly a 2 pitch pitcher so if they do have a tell it's real easy.

I didn't think Venable would keep him in after that last inning.

Not sure why Richards was still in after 20+ pitches last inning.

Not after tonight. He gives up a lot of homers.

Sam seems like the kinda guy who wants a collision

Just run through the base next time Sam

They used Richards, probably the lowest leverage reliever they have, to eat an inning. It's fine.

Extremely ballsy to tag on that.

I noticed Meidroth adjusted his hands to be higher and it's been working so far.

Varsho just missed that. We got lucky.

Richards is just not good if he can't get swings and misses on his change up

He was good today before that one. TBF, Richards' change up moves like a damn knuckle ball.

Kay is done for the day

Interesting that they'd rather just walk Grichuk than switch pitchers.

Way to pick up Vargas Colson
