GDT: 09/18/2020 GAME 2 Blue Jays (Stripling) at Phillies (Hale)

[LoneStarPhan]

I sure would be unhappy if I were a Blue Jay fan. Jays score 5 and Stripling comes out and walks the first batter in the bottom of the inning. He with the .143 BA.

Roman Quinn

Called strike (90.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Called strike (82.5 mph changeup)
Ball in dirt (83.2 mph changeup)
Swinging strike (84.6 mph changeup)

Roman Quinn strikes out swinging.

[Patchmk88]

Quin in his current state is unplayable. Pretty much an automatic strike out.

[LoneStarPhan]

Quinn down swinging and the pitch was probably more than a foot outside the strike zone. He has to stop swinging wildly at bad pitches.

A.J. Cole coming in to pitch for the Blue Jays.

Rafael Marchan homers (1)

Sign him!

[LoneStarPhan]

So yes, I'm thinking not much chance this inning with the bottom of the order coming up.

[andyb]

Wow. First ever. Magic MLB baseballs.

Foul (93.9 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (90. mph slider)
In play, no out (89. mph slider)

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. singles on a line drive to center fielder Roman Quinn.

[LoneStarPhan]

I thought they might bring Phelps back out to start the inning. Based on his record with the Brewers, he has done some good pitching this season. But Hembree it is, for better or for worse.

[kikutaro]

Teoscar Hernandez

Ball (93.7 mph four-seam fastball)
Swinging strike (94.5 mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (94.7 mph four-seam fastball)

Teoscar Hernandez singles on a sharp line drive to center fielder Roman Quinn. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. to 3rd.

[Patchmk88]

I’m not sure why this guy continues to be allowed to pitch. He’s the worst of our very bad bullpen.

[kikutaro]

Randal Grichuk

Ball (94.7 mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (87.5 mph slider)
Ball (89.2 mph slider)
In play, run(s) (87.2 mph slider)

Randal Grichuk out on a sacrifice fly to left fielder Andrew McCutchen. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. scores.

Toronto Blue Jays 6 - Philadelphia Phillies 5
