[Patchmk88]

Hitting has been bad today.

[zambonir]

I think you gotta tip your cap to the manager yet again, I didn't want to see more of Hunter and he was obviously saving Morgan for the lefties. The way it played out he only had to get one of them.

And now he's going with the "don't pitch your closer in a tie game on the road" approach. He may regret that. Or Thompson may have to go three innings.

[kikutaro]

Reynolds, M

Pitching Change: Jake Thompson replaces Adam Morgan, batting 4th, replacing Maikel Franco.
Ball (84.5 mph slider)
Ball (83.8 mph slider)
Ball (91.8 mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (89.7 mph two-seam fastball)
Foul (91.2 mph two-seam fastball)
Ball (84.2 mph changeup)

Mark Reynolds walks.

[LoneStarPhan]

Ending up with Thompson to pitch the ninth may work but I don't think it puts one of your top half of the relievers out there late in the game. We will see how it plays out.

[kikutaro]

Severino, P

Called strike (90.8 mph two-seam fastball)
Ball (83.9 mph changeup)
Called strike (91.0 mph two-seam fastball)
Foul (82.9 mph slider)
Ball (83.1 mph slider)
Swinging strike (85.7 mph changeup)

Pedro Severino strikes out swinging.

[kikutaro]

Taylor

Offensive Substitution: Pinch-hitter Michael A. Taylor replaces Kelvin Herrera.
Ball (85.4 mph slider)
In play, out(s) (87.0 mph two-seam fastball)

Michael A. Taylor grounds into a double play, third baseman Jesmuel Valentin to second baseman Cesar Hernandez to first baseman Carlos Santana. Mark Reynolds out at 2nd.

[LoneStarPhan]

I don't like to see the walk to the lead off hitter, but credit Thompson with getting the next two hitters to end the inning on the K and the DP. Well done.

I sure hope the Phillies can score a run in this upcoming half inning.

[kikutaro]

Valentín, J

Pitching Change: Tim Collins replaces Kelvin Herrera, batting 9th, replacing Michael A. Taylor.
Swinging strike (84.3 mph changeup)
Ball (89.2 mph slider)
Ball (84.7 mph changeup)
Ball (91.8 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (92.4 mph four-seam fastball)

Jesmuel Valentin walks.

[kikutaro]

Alfaro

Pickoff Attempt 1B
Swinging strike (92.1 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, no out (92.8 mph four-seam fastball)

Jorge Alfaro singles on a ground ball to right fielder Adam Eaton. Jesmuel Valentin to 2nd.

[zambonir]

Of course we're also not on the road, ooops. Book would be Seranthony here for sure.

You can hear a fan yelling about the failed bunt there. I think that was a bad call, just like having Alfaro swing was a good call.

[kikutaro]

Williams, N

In play, out(s) (84.5 mph changeup)

Nick Williams ground bunts into a force out, pitcher Tim Collins to third baseman Anthony Rendon. Jesmuel Valentin out at 3rd. Jorge Alfaro to 2nd. Nick Williams to 1st.

[LoneStarPhan]

Nicely placed ground ball by Alfaro for the hit to right; poor bunt by Williams to hand an out to the Nationals for no gain. Wasted at bat.
