[Philsmania]

Good call holding him.

[BostonRoss]

Well, if there’s one thing we how to do, it’s take pitches.

[LoneStarPhan]

Of course, Rhys swings at first pitch. Pirates have infield filled.

Hoskins pops up second pitch.

Did he watch the walks and then 3-0 to Knapp. Just awful at bat !

[Patchmk88]

This guys is absolutely dreadful

[LoneStarPhan]

Full count. Both called strikes were just outside. Should have been the game walk off winning walk.

Umps can be and are a big factor in the outcome of ball games.

[Patchmk88]

Typical Phillies fashion there. So glad Gabe has Rhys batting 1st

[Philsmania]

They need to concoct an injury for Hoskins. He needs to clear his head.

[Patchmk88]

Not sure why Gabe wasn’t out there chewing out the umpire after that pathetic display of scaling strikes and balls

[kikutaro]

Marte, S

Pitching Change: Mike Morin replaces Hector Neris, batting 9th.
Ball (72.3 mph changeup)
Swinging strike (90.7 mph two-seam fastball)
In play, no out (71.4 mph changeup)
23 ft bunt grounder (exit speed: 24 mph, launch angle: 10°)

Starling Marte singles on a soft bunt ground ball to third baseman Brad Miller.

[LoneStarPhan]

It is really hard to believe that Hoskins, who has repeatedly taken pitches in the middle of the strike zone for called strikes, chooses to swing at the first and second pitches he sees after the pitcher has issued two 4 pitch walks and a single to a batter he started off 3-0.

Hard to watch Hoskins this past week.

[kikutaro]

Reyes, P

Pickoff Attempt 1B
In play, out(s) (80.4 mph slider)
305 ft fly ball (exit speed: 89 mph, launch angle: 24°)

Pablo Reyes flies out to center fielder Sean Rodriguez.

[LoneStarPhan]

JT nails another trying to steal second.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

JT is a pleasure to watch behind the plate

[kikutaro]

Cabrera, Me

Called strike (79.6 mph slider)
Ball (91.4 mph four-seam fastball)
Starling Marte caught stealing 2nd base, catcher J. T. Realmuto to shortstop Jean Segura.
Ball (81.8 mph slider)
In play, out(s) (89.5 mph two-seam fastball)
98 ft ground ball (exit speed: 67 mph, launch angle: -26°)

Melky Cabrera grounds out, third baseman Brad Miller to first baseman Rhys Hoskins.

[LoneStarPhan]

My thought is "Why do the Pirates keep trying to steal?"

[Patchmk88]

Hurdle giving Gabe a run for worst manager in baseball. Continues to let his players run themselves out of innings.

[bkox]

J.T. Realmuto is the first #Phillies catcher to throw out three would-be base stealers in a game since Chris Coste on Sept. 15, 2007.
