I may streak across this field if Braun goes yard.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Knebel, Soria, Jeffress, Hader, yes, maybe even Burnes, these guys are going to be available tomorrow. They're all coming into today off 2 days rest and their pitch counts were watched carefully. I don't know why we're worried so much about this.

 

Crating a narrative that the bullpen game was a bad idea.

 

yeah, those guys can and will be used tomorrow if necessary. It's do or die time of the year.

I like Granderson here.

And because the zone was expanded by the ump, Braun has to protect half a foot off the plate, and he's gone. What garbage.

 

Yup. That was all on the ump getting suckered by their catcher.

 

That 2-1 was a missed call, but chasing a pitch 18 inches off the plate is never on the umpire.

What a stupid choice to let Braun bat there. He is garbage against elite RHP. Put in a pitcher to bunt the guy over. Clutchless

 

Yeah, that seems like an overreaction. If clutch is a thing, and I am not sure it is, I feel like Braun's numbers would be close to his career norm.
