I really hope they throw at him tomorrow. I normally am not about the integrity of the game, let guys celebrate and have fun, but not him after what he pulled earlier in the year when he’s purposely trying be as much of a pompous prick as he possibly can be.

Yup. I'm plunking him. He leans into everything anyways, so he'll probably get hit regardless.

So bit of a bummer Yelich can't even go there. Nice to see Urias kick on from tonight's game.

I still can't believe that AB against the shift. Unless the TV camera was at a weird angle, they were giving JBJ a leadoff single.

So I heard the guys mention that they're "easing Devin Williams into high leverage situations" or something like that last night. Is he coming off an injury I don't know about? Whats the reasoning?

Felt like the ump had a good zone through 6 innings and completely shat himself for the rest of the game. I think it was a Vogelbach AB where he called a strike up and in off the plate and then low and away off the plate. I don't know.

HBP between the clubs was sitting at 4-4 when they threw at Woody I believe. You never throw at the pitcher. I would love nothing more than to see Woodruff pummel one of the ScRubs. As Woody said repeatedly, "thats f***ed up"

He hasn't looked good. In his first game he walked one and gave up an RBI triple, second game a homer. and a walk. Third game he walked two before getting out of it with a DP. I don't think he's hurt he just hasn't been good.

Thats annoying. Babying the reigning ROY is annoying. To me, Counsell has had a rough start to the season.

Hiura back to 2nd for the rubber match. Glad McKinney is getting the start.
