GDT 9/18/20 Philadelphia Phillies (Eflin) @ Toronto Blue Jays (Ray)

Strike out and then ahead 0-2 only to throw 4 balls in a row to walk another.

Giving the Blue Jays another opening. So far, Eflin able to overcome, but why make life harder?

Eflin at 51 pitches through 4 innings so I hope he can go a couple more innings. If things go well, a complete game. Of course, he has to continue to be effective.

Thomas Hatch in to pitch for the Blue Jays.

Eflin has been very efficient, in spite of the walks sprinkled in. I’m hoping for a complete game.

Edit: I was thinking the same thing before I saw your most recent post
