Feeling squeezed

Yup!

These tight strike zones are pissing me off. He was giving Estrada the high strike on that curve ball

Great job MLB. Tiny zones equal walked in runs or batting practice fastballs.

0 hits this inning.

The HBP on Donaldson totally changed this inning

man, getting squeezed or not, just make them swing. if you get beat you get beat, but make them do it.

and yeah, obviously, the smart thing to do would have been to replace volkie after 5. yost got away with it in games 1 and 2. not today.

Well, crap.

Missouriscribe · « **Reply #52883 on:** October 21, 2015, 05:05:59 PM »

Ned is still in regular season mode. Looks like Grady little on steroids not dipping into the best bullpen in history when volqy was faltering that obviously

bones129 · « **Reply #52884 on:** October 21, 2015, 05:09:13 PM »

We have to come back in this one or win Friday. I don't want to let them see Cueto again.

Powercat Posse · « **Reply #52885 on:** October 21, 2015, 05:10:49 PM »

all 4 runs that have scored...... Walk, hbp, walk, walk

I know he wasn't missing by much, but at some point you have to throw your off speed stuff when the count is 2-2 or 3-2. They consistently Fouled off his fastballs

That inning was on ned

not our day

i REALLY didn't want this to come back to KC, but I have to believe we can get one of two at home.

Powercat Posse · « **Reply #52889 on:** October 21, 2015, 05:19:53 PM »

Main reason I hope Price pitches today. It forces Stroman to throw on 3 days rest.

Some pitchers handle that fine. Some don't. And he will be on the road, won't have that crowd to pump him up

home field advantage in the playoffs, fact or fiction?

millertime · « **Reply #52891 on:** October 21, 2015, 05:21:21 PM »

After putting up 33 in the first for games, we were definitely due for a stinker on offense. Hopefully we got/get it all out of the way today so we can come back and score a bunch on Friday.

mocat · « **Reply #52892 on:** October 21, 2015, 05:37:44 PM »

it wouldn't have mattered because we can't hit today, but man that strikeout vs bautista that was called a walk really got under my skin

bones129 · « **Reply #52893 on:** October 21, 2015, 05:40:04 PM »

SAL!!

This rally would really be something if Ned were less dumb.

he's pretty dumb about letting starting pitchers face good hitters for a third time in playoff games.

that's ned though. you have to take the good with the bad. he's not going to change for anyone. just as we all know that j cuets is going to pitch game 7, ned is gonna ned.

We mailed that game offensively from the 1st inning on. It's like we just wanted to get back on American soil or something.

Ventura v. Price and Cueto v. Stroman have me very, very concerned. This is going to be a slow death over the next 3 days.
