4 Hits

2 Runs

3 LOB

 

Vazquez 54 pitches through 3 IP.

 

After 2 and a half, the score is 2-1 Texas

I shouldn't say show some heart, flex some muscle since

we ain't good at smallball.

Don't worry, our batters will see a combined 7 pitches this inning.

They are hot, we are not. Three little ground ball singles and a walk, then a hard single. They are VERY hot.

Who gives a s*** how hot they are? Good pitching defeats good hitting.

 

Vazquez better not pull this bulls*** again, or else he'll be lucky to escape with only 2 runs.

Awesome job Javy. If only you could read this thread.

You'd realize how insane this losing streak is driving us, and force the rest of the team to grow some balls.

One of our super subs has to have a big game.

Wake up Mack or Cintron and Crede needs an early

summer 3 run homer with Thome out.

Or he'd laugh his ass off. The entire team would if they read any of these things.

Texas should have had more then that really. They let you off the hook. That last batter especially. In that situation you should always at least take one pitch IMO.

This team does way too much of the waiting around for a 3 run homer any more. Last night the Halos stole like 6 bases on Victor Martinez, I don't think we stole more than 1 or 2 off him in that whole 4 game series.

Leadoff walk for Pods.. excellent

Don't worry, our batters will see a combined 7 pitches this inning.

 

 

Uribe and Anderson are pinch hitting?

Get him over, get it tied. Get his ass running.

 

Barajas is 8/23 in throwing out base stealers this year.

Uribe and Anderson are pinch hitting?

I forgot Iguchi was batting and you need at least 3 pitches to strike out.

At least scott tried running

I'll gladly eat some crow.

You've been asking for balls Balta, there ya go

Iguchi is a lucky, lucky man.
