8/30 Games

Smith was dealing  with no hits/walks (1 HBP) and 6K through 3.

Got strikeout #7 to leadoff the 4th inning, then back to back comebacker grounders.

He dodged the first which ended up a single up the middle, and took the second off his leg resulting in an IF single.

Got checked out and stayed in the game. Picked off the runner at first, allowed a walk, then got a popout to end the inning.

Easy 1-2-3 5th, done at 66 pitches.

That's encouraging especially only 1 BB.

Unfortunately, Schultz struggled.

I don’t think he struggled at all. I thought he looked pretty good. The first inning he gave up two weak seeing eye singles with two outs then they stole home on bad defense. He gave up a few hits in the 2nd but breezed through the third. Was throwing lots of strikes.

His slider getting inside to righties or everything away?

I agree, line looks worse than the performance. He gave up 3 singles, one was hard hit.

Hackenberg didn't need to throw to second on a delayed steal with two strikes on the batter and a runner at third, but he did and it cost a run. Schultz ended the inning on the next pitch.

I could be wrong but I don’t remember him having any trouble getting inside pitches to righties. The single in the first by the righty was a jam shot.
