[LoneStarPhan]

Quite the turnaround by Avarado coming back to get back to back strikeouts to get out of the inning. Nice.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Wild pitch by pitcher Jose Alvarado. Marcell Ozuna to 2nd.
Mound Visit.

Whatever Caleb Cotham said, it worked. It might have been “just throw fastballs.” Or maybe “Hit #10 and #7.”

[el-pietro]

Vinny might end up with the same stats as someone with a series of quality starts but hell get there via a different route, maybe with less innings per start too.
Lots of 1 and 5 run games rather than 3 run/6 inning starts. Which is possibly more useful in the end, if less reliable.

[LoneStarPhan]

NO. No walks.

[zambonir]

Even though Hector just walked a guy and now has to face a dangerous PH, this game is really an object lesson in the weirdness of relief pitching. Coonrod and Alvarado had the harder jobs. And while this AB still makes me nervous, we also caught an unfortunate break in this leadoff spot.

Can't let Freddie bat.

[LoneStarPhan]

The walk killed us.

[kikutaro]

Swinging strike (85.1 mph splitter)

Pablo Sandoval homers (4) on a fly ball to right center field. Ehire Adrianza scores.

Philadelphia Phillies 3 - Atlanta Braves 3

[BostonRoss]

Not a good time to groove a fastball.

[zambonir]

Oof. Was Hector on the mound the last time Pablo did that?

[Patchmk88]

Why the hell do you throw a fastball there

[LoneStarPhan]

Should have thrown a fast ball to the batter he walked on back to back spliters.

[zambonir]

Cripes. Just like that it's a week ago.

[kikutaro]

Ball (84.4 mph splitter)
