IGT 5/4/2024: NYM@TBR — The Christian Gentleman

[G-Fafif]

Our Christian savior will attempt to disconnect the devilish Rays from any further winning. Young Scott faces Zack Littell at 7:15 PM on a FOX affiliate near you, unless you live in some unsophisticated market showing a different game.

[Frayed Knot]

May the 4th be with us

[G-Fafif]

Scott is officially promoted, with Sulser recalled as well. Nuñez and Young are optioned.

[ashie62]

It's Harvey day!

[G-Fafif]

Nimmo LF

Marte RF

Lindor SS

Alonso 1B

Martinez DH (still not a real position)

McNeil 2B

Bader CF

Baty 3B

Nido C



Scott P

[ashie62]

How about a DH that also serves as the first base coach

[Frayed Knot]

The kid needs an out here to avoid the dreaded infinite ERA

[metirish]

Great Scott

[Frayed Knot]

ERA plummets from infinity to 27.00 and now to 9.00, all in two pitches!

Hey, it's progress.

[Edgy MD]

FOX's video with Howie Rose's voice in sync is sweet. This has never worked for me before.

[ashie62]

Be Matt Harvey

[Frayed Knot]

So they're telling us that was 'definitive evidence'?!?

No, it was another one of those 51/49 calls replay proponents swore would never overturn calls.

[metirish]

Kids got a live fastball

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

That was a nice inning.



Let's send Alonso to Binghamton

[Edgy MD]

Tom Hanahan is certainly working with an embiggened strike zone.

[Frayed Knot]

FOX at least knows how to conduct an in-inning interview and only shrink the screen for two pitches while doing so.

ESPN would ignore the game going on for at least two or three batters and sometimes an entire half-inning.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Anyone make out the Bible verse in Scott's glove?

Maybe we should nickname him 'Crash'

The man who pitches on faith alone.

[metirish]

Who is doing the game with the PBP guy ?

[Frayed Knot]

Adam Wainwright

[Frayed Knot]

43 pitches thru 4 IP for the kid. Prolly half of them in the 1st

[The Hot Corner]

Scott expanded the zone in that inning and the Marlins hitters were flailing away, helplessly at pitches out of the zone.

This photo gives me Ps 118:14 "The Lord is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation."

Yeah, they pay these guys to talk.

But he's doing to pitching analysis thing but without drowning us in technical details the way Smoltz has tended to do in recent years.

Decent start for a rookie IMO

[ashie62]

This kid could become our ace in no time

Agree , he's been good

[Edgy MD]

Kodai Senga will hopefully have something to say about that.
