It's like we're playing the Bash Brothers era A's

They definitely have some power. Earlier on this road trip they scored 19 runs in one game against the Orioles (and hit 5 HRs that day).

[Aquapong]

Mercado probably does need to be in the minors refining his control. His cutter is kind of a strange pitch…it has vertical movement instead of horizontal. But not a whole lot of movement. He might be better as a reliever with fb and curve.

Trea Turner

Called strike (92. mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (91.7 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (79.1 mph sweeper)
In play, no out (79.3 mph sweeper)

Trea Turner singles on a ground ball to center fielder JJ Bleday.

[bkeich]

Rooker doing a great job selling himself.

[kikutaro]

Bryce Harper

In play, out(s) (80.6 mph slider)

Bryce Harper grounds into a double play, second baseman Zack Gelof to shortstop Max Schuemann to first baseman Seth Brown. Trea Turner out at 2nd. Bryce Harper out at 1st.

Trea Turner

Called strike (92. mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (91.7 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (79.1 mph sweeper)
In play, no out (79.3 mph sweeper)

Trea Turner singles on a ground ball to center fielder JJ Bleday.

At this point, a single is a little disappointing from Turner. He has to be the early leader in player of the month.

[EastFallowfield]

Harper safe on the replay

[kikutaro]

Alec Bohm

Called strike (77.5 mph sweeper)
In play, no out (77.9 mph slider)

Alec Bohm doubles (33) on a ground ball to left fielder Miguel Andujar. Bryce Harper to 3rd.

[bkox]

He has to be the early leader in player of the month.

wonder how many times a team has had 3 consecutive players of the month

[kikutaro]

Bryson Stott

Foul (91.3 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, run(s) (92.8 mph four-seam fastball)

Bryson Stott out on a sacrifice fly to left fielder Miguel Andujar. Bryce Harper scores. Alec Bohm scores. Throwing error by left fielder Miguel Andujar.

[VoteForKalas]

Rooker definitely make an audition this series. We already have a DH however unless we want Schwarber in LF which I do not advocate.

[EastFallowfield]

Again, our TV broadcast lacking something. Talk of previous long homers at CBP, no video. Talk of a HR hitting contest between Schmidt and Dave Kingman, no video, despite our announcers seemingly looking at it in the booth.
