Class of 04 Posted May 30 Posted May 30 So far they're playing more like it's the first game of the season and not the regionals, just not sharp in the early going defensively and that poor slide by Mendoza in the bottom of the first. 1 Quote

ThatHornsGuy87 Posted May 30 Posted May 30 Nothing infuriates me more than taking every single 1st pitch. Especially when they've been fastball straight down the pipe Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 30 Moderators Posted May 30 A sacrifice bunt by Dutka puts a runner in scoring position with one out. Payne comes to the plate with Roper on second. Quote
Realist Horn Posted May 30 Posted May 30 Walker was throwing strikes. Not sure why you want a bullpen game in Game 1 when pitching could be a premium if you drop a game. 1 Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 30 Moderators Posted May 30 Saunier strikes out Payne and gets Walker to ground out to second to get out of the inning. The free pass doesn't come back to bite Texas. 1 Quote

Especially when they've been fastball straight down the pipe I agree, I know that Schloss wants them to see/work the pitcher, but typically you're almost always going to see a first pitch get me over fastball against this lineup because the opponents know we're taking. Most times when the count starts 1-0 it's because the pitcher missed. Quote
