Eh, with this offense and specifically Adolis slumping I dont mind Adolis taking a hack there at 2-0.

He's gotta remember what it's like to be a hitter.

Hitters swing at strikes

It wasn't a terrible pitch, it was in the zone until it crept at the end.

And we are/were down a run in the 8th with Garver and then a bunch of duds coming up. You can't hate how bad the bottom half of this lineup is but then also want one guy who still has some major pop to not swing in +EV situations.

I'm being hyperbolic no doubt, but there's no denying how awful he's been for a while now.

Why are the disastro fans saying they are in 1st place? They're not. 58 > 57.

This is silly. The way everyone reports baseball standings, they are in a tie for first.

Granted, come tomorrow when the waiver list is released, they'll be pleased to admit their winning percentage is lower (if we hold on tonight)

In a standings tie with an unequal number of games played, it is best to not to be behind in the loss column.

At the end everyone has played the same number of games and if not then winning percentage matters.

And I think some of you guys are being fooled by small sample recency results from LeClerc. He still very much lacks control. He got some guys swinging at the slider wayyyyy out of the strike zone the last two outings. I'm fine with that if I'm confident he can throw strikes when he needs to, but he can't. He has as much a chance of being lock down in the 9th as he does walking the first two batters.

You literally cannot trust a soul in the bullpen.

I get that Perez was going through the lineup a 2nd time, but why can't Bochy ever roll with a pitcher that is doing well? There is no reason to take that chance with this bullpen. Especially with an off day tomorrow.

Walk away for 5 minutes with a 2 run lead. Return, we're tied, and Will Smith is pitching relief.

Not sure man but good thinking. We're at the point that just ride the hot hand and don't give anyone roles

How in the world is Taveras not on 2nd base there? I mean that's just fundamentally bad baseball

Somebody said it best the other day that Semien is a guy who hits a ton of 360 foot outs…

No. You don't tag on a fly ball to the wall.

That's a 50/50 spot on first base. You play it half way so if it does get down you're now on third and taking the extra base. Tagging from first isn't natural either.

No, you don't get too far away from first that you can't tag up when the RF falls down after catching a ball against the wall.
Proposition Joe

On that ball you are a step or two passed 2nd base so that if it falls you score, and if its somehow caught (like it was), you can still get back.

In no world do you tag on that ball, especially to right field. If it's caught in right field in any other scenario other than banging into the wall, you likely get thrown out at 2nd base trying to advance after tagging.
