This grip looks like it would take some getting used to.
&f=1&nofb=1


Spike curve or knuckle curve can be easier on your arm and sharper bite on the break. Starting to see more of it being taught.

More strikes out of the zone have been called than in the zone. Pretty bad when you miss more than half the calls

Haven't been able to post much tonight, but have been watching. Big zone tonight. The call on Tucker was criminal though and in a huge situation.

If this is all the offense we can muster against this rag arm, we're in a world of hurt and for a very short post-season.
A lot of it is the huge zone. Why would Gibson even come close to the zone if he's going to get pitches 3 inches off the plate and low called?

Altuve just seems to have trouble picking up the spin. He really looks bad.

Josh James up in the pen. Looks like we need to score this inning...

Need to string some hits together. Somehow.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Tucker isn't even trying to go with a pitch now. He was on his hot streak. He could've put that pitch into left.

Think he's out.

I do not understand why runners look back when stealing. Don't know what it accomplishes.

Typically that indicates hit and run and they're looking in to see if there was contact.

Which may also explain the weak ass lead he had.

Isn't that generally a sign it is supposed to be a hit & run? Head down on a straight steal?

It's to track the ball if it's been hit. You need to be ready to adjust on the fly.

Thanks.

Yeah, that makes sense. Thought he was straight stealing. Think you're right.

Outstanding game by McCullers. Most impressive? No walks.

Thanks, guys, haha. I was just figuring it was a straight steal and wasn't thinking. Appreciate all the quick responses. Haha.

Trend continues- this team can either hit or pitch, but not both at the same time.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.
