[G-Fafif]

Paulino to answer our No. 9 dreams.

[Gwreck]

Error by Polanco. Error by Rollins. We have to make them pay for those NOW!!

Edit: or hit into a double play by Beltran. We didn't lok very good in the first.

[Ceetar]

or not. Worley's thrown a bunch of pitches through two, helped by the errors. Let's see how they pick him up the second time through.

A little better, but not enough to do anything. a couple of walks. 77 pitches through 4.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Oh, dear, Ryan Howard.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wimpy walk!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Keep in mind: they walked an .083 hitter to get to this guy.

[bmfc1]

Awful decision. If you don't think that your pitcher can get out Brian Schneider then he shouldn't be pitching.

[bmfc1]

It's about frigging time you came out Terry. Were you asleep?

And it appears to have bitten them.

What about Sandy?

[bmfc1]

Terry. I was thinking that Sandy needs to do something about Pelfrey.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Yay! A hit!

[bmfc1]

That was a timely report by Guys! on how well Bay is seeing the ball right before he hits into a DP.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Living on the edge and pitching to Schneider here.

[Guest Edgy DC]

And they walk him anyway.

Butts.

[Guest Edgy DC]

That's my Schneider.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Radical.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

This game went bad in a hurry.

[ashie62]

Can Pelfrey be sent to AAA Buffalo without his permission?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

God what a shitty outing

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Well, good thing you've got the LOOGY to pitch to Howard there. You wouldn't want things to get out of hand.

[Frayed Knot]

When runners on on, they hit HRs, we hit in DPs.
Nuff said.

[Fman99]

Wow, I'm surprised they cancelled this game. So, you know, it never happened.

You got that?

[Guest Edgy DC]

I don't want to overstate the importance of that intentional walk to Schneider, but this game is 100% tied to Terry's decision there. The next game they lose is also.

Yup.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

New rule: if your starting pitcher has lost more than ten pounds in a couple of days, and you have any other viable starting option, do not start the skinny pitcher.

Also if he's pretty much sucked so far this year, add that in.

[Centerfield]

Terry's decision. Grumble grumble. Hard hit ball by Bay turns into DP. Howard's cheap GS. Grumble grumble.

That should probably also be taken into account, yes.

But last night seemed all about fatigue-- he was looking pretty snappy (results- AND process-wise) through 3.
