He's going to the high heat for strike 3. Must be what the scouting report says. Good job for Eddie expecting it.

I hope someone is telling the other batters until he makes an adjustment.

that's a crooked number for gibson to work with. when's the last time they scored a run in the first inning? let alone two and still batting.

great start Gibson you poopface

once again it's either 93 over the plate or 10 feet from the zone

5 pitch walk with 4 balls not even being anywhere near the plate. 2 on for Yelich...

~20 pitches an inning again. ball ball ball ball (no idea why grandal swung at the first pitch there)
escaping but he's got to be better/tighter or some runs are going to start happening.

this pitch wasn't really like the one he took for strike 3 in the first. much more over the plate. that first one could have been called a ball.

hit .230 in July and .250 in Aug. under .300 for the season now and extra base hits have dropped off the map after ripping 2b/3/bhrs all over the place April and May. also striking out 1x a game instead of 2x per 3 games
