Great job by Skelton of just getting it in play. He was clearly overmatched
-
Good inning. That's what we wanted. Jump on them early.

It looks like he has a tight strike zone, but has been consistent. Fellows did not help himself with the ump, that's for sure.

Seems like his breaking ball is really hard to pick up.

Agreed!

Skelton is the worst defensive catcher I?ve ever seen

I agree. Each ball just off the plate has been called a ball. I like it
-
That's the third time in a week that Skelton hasn't caught a pop up in foul territory. Could've been 1 pitch, 1 out

We desperately need to recruit a stud catcher.
-
Anytime a ball is up somebody needs to ball Skelton off. He cannot catch a pop up

Just pretty much another miss state catcher. We are terrible at developing or evaluating catchers

It is.
It comes out flat out of the hand, which make is look like his fastball. The sacrifice he makes with a flat out of hand curveball is that it's difficult to throw for a strike, due to simple geometry.
The other type of curveball is the bigger one with a hump out of the hand, like Kershaw's. Those are easier for the hitter to pick up but are easier to throw for strikes.

Beltmont can't get gone fast enough for me.

A miss like that usually comes back and bites our butt. Alexander promptly makes an error.

Terrible play by Alexander, but I have to say I would hate playing on that field. The footing has to be an issue sometimes.
