I have had periodic problems with one devise or another in the past couple years but have eventually (somehow) gotten all the devises to work on the MLB TV subscription. When I did have a problem, other devises would still be working.
Hoskins
Foul (93.2 mph four-seam fastball)Hit by pitch (93.2 mph four-seam fastball)
Rhys Hoskins hit by pitch.
Three walks and a HBP for Hoskins!
Carle was immediately ejected by the home plate umpire.
Luke Jackson is coming in to pitch for the Braves. (RHP)
For hitting Hoskins? IIRC, someone above mentioned the wind was affecting the pitchers.

Herrera, O
Ball in dirt (81.7 mph curveball)Called strike (94.2 mph four-seam fastball)Foul (81.9 mph curveball)In play, out(s) (83.3 mph curveball)
Odubel Herrera grounds into a force out, second baseman Ozzie Albies to shortstop Johan Camargo. Rhys Hoskins to 3rd. J.T. Realmuto out at 2nd. Odubel Herrera to 1st.
Even more amazingly, Freddie Freeman might still be the best player in the series.
Yeah, but a fastball on the shoulder (e.g, precious near the head), on the pitch after Harper's long home run? And after all the bombs the Phillies have hit in this series? I can imaging the umpire felt he needed to send a message.
HernĂĄndez, C
Foul (94.3 mph four-seam fastball)Ball (81.8 mph curveball)Swinging strike (83. mph curveball)Called strike (86.3 mph slider)
Cesar Hernandez called out on strikes.
The ump certainly didn't hesitate. It was perhaps a little hasty of him - was there a previous warning on? - but it's not like he could change his mind.
I guess there's some good lip reading to be done on Rhys's reaction.
Franco

Maikel Franco singles on a ground ball to second baseman Ozzie Albies. Rhys Hoskins scores. Odubel Herrera to 2nd.

Not complaining, Julio. Just curious, given the number of walks for the evening. Never understood throwing one through the box simply because the previous batter put it over the fence.
