DJ finally figured out you don't have to jack every pitch.
Hines went opposite field... the world may be ending folks
Hunter went opposite field end of the world near.
Another good inning getting some big hits. Still just feels like we are one big hit from breaking this thing wide open.
LOB: 6
LISP: 4
We don?t have to hit a bomb every AB
It is still early. We can’t let our foot off the pedal. Need to get out of this inning unscathed.
Come on Brooks just throw strikes. Just keep pumping the strike zone and make them beat you. Not gifting them fat pitches on full counts or walking them.
Good thing Higgins is fat.
How slow is that guy that a 3 bouncer from 3B beats him to the bag
Did not need that. Can’t let them get confident.
Dammit. We let them get confident.
At least there weren?t any walks that inning.
When Auger loses it, he doesnt get it back. Better have someone ready for bottom of 5th.
I don’t think we can afford to have someone ready.Quote:

Unfortunately agree. We need as many as we can get out of him. We need to save TD, and probably Schuelke for tonight. We would need to win this one with Ligon, Cheatham, and Black.Quote:

Given Black was scoreless last time out I might even save him. Have to ride Ligon hard.Quote:

Of course not the time for us to lose our $hite defensively. WTH
Auger is battling now, he can't do another inning
Whew. Thank you Husjack/
Wow. Surprised by this move.
Yeah flip that bat you monkey. LOL!!!
He gone. Scheulke coming in.
Looks like Auger is on a pitch count.
Good move by Parker.
Wish Auger could have done 7 innings, but was not going to happen.
I would have been fine stretching him with this leadQuote:

Do not agree with Schuelke here. But then again, we really do not have anyone left.
Yeah would not have been opposed to trying to stretch him a little longerQuote:

We're pretty much waving the flag every time bring this dude in. At 56 years old, he's the only pitcher in baseball I could get a hit off of.
Right now we may not win THIS ONE with him pitching.Quote:
