Shut up

Take a picture..... This might not happen again!

If even Butera is driving in 2, maybe this really is going to be our day.

Thank you wizard hat duck or goose or whatever

Rendon is a pro at HBP. Sparked this rally.
 

[Justin]

Damn, 4 runs is a big GAME for this team lately, let alone inning. 

[Lhalo]

 

[tdawg87]

No runs. Of course.

Honestly I thought I was missing something.  My bad.  I wonder what’s more valuable having runners on 1st and 2nd with one out or a runner on 3rd with two outs.

I'm actually just fucking around because I'm bored. Not even watching the game.

Took 5 days to get here, if it holds.

Yo, Sho!! The pitcher has yet to give up a homer!!

[jsnpritchett]

Quintana's command/control sure seems to be better today so far.

[fan_since79]

Who's the guy on the mound impersonating Quintana?

Sign him!

This is the guy many of us were expecting.

3 pitches, 2 outs.

Ugh.

Sort of.

Quintana was never really a big strikeout guy. He’s failing and succeeding this year as a completely different pitcher from his career norms so far. It’s weird.

Be wild if he could morph into a successful pitcher while sustaining this above-average K rate and what that might entail.

Well I mas mainly referring to the control, but I agree.

[UndertheHalo]

I think what we can expect from Quintana and Cobb is a solid mix of decent and complete dog shit performances.   This is why Heaney/Bundy/Canning have to be semi reliable.  Ohtani.  I just want him healthy.  If he’s healthy he’ll be pretty good.  I am very smart.

Ok, get a double play here.  I don't want things to start spiraling out of control. (Yes, I realize there's only one guy on--but we've seen things go south quickly all year...)
