I saw Tillman pitched tonight. I felt that there were 4 "games within a game" for him tonight:

A. He looked very good for the first 3 and 2/3 innings.

B. With 2 outs and a runner on first base in the 4th inning, Tillman was coasting. Then he walked a batter on four pitces. Then he walked the next batter as well. Then he gave up a 2-run single. Fortunately, he got the final batter of the inning on one pitch.

C. After the bad 1/3 of an inning in the 4th, Tillman looked very good again in the 5th with a 10-pitch inning.

D. In the 6th inning, he reverted back to the way that he was pitching in the final 1/3 of an inning in the 4th. With one out, he walked 2 more batters, gave up a single in between, and was tagged for a 2-run double, which ended his day. Fortunately, Chris George came in to get the last 2 outs of the inning with runners on 2nd and 3rd and only one out to prevent any further damage.

Other than that, Chris had his usual huge breaking ball working well for him. Overall though, it was a disappointing outing after a very promising start.

Outman. Great baseball name, there.

Love the move by Buck to put Reynolds at first and get Adams in there at second. Neither Fox nor Scott can hit lefties worth a crap (or haven't so far this year), so moving Reynolds over both eliminates a hole in the line-up and allows us to get a look at Adams. Nice to see some line up creativity.

I have a strange feeling that Andino is not only going to lead the game off with a bunt attempt, but he actually is going to succeed in getting it down for a base hit.

Optimist, an impressive skill in the face of 13 years of futility, kudos.

From NOAA:

At the least, it looks like we'll get this one in, just maybe not until after 11 PM.

Oh well, it's beer o'clock anywho!

Anyone have a stream? MLB tv says black out, I am at a hotel which does not have MASN.

Bummer, MLB is totally extreme on this. I cancelled MLB.TV for my son because he lives in Blacksburg, Va and does not get cable. Masn is available on his cable, so MLB.TV blacks out the broadcast, I cancelled them. As many games as MLB plays, tightly controlling viewership is not wise.

Use a proxy when connecting - once it's streaming you can switch back to your connection. "Proxy switchy" for chrome works great. Proxy-list.org is a good site - look for a 100% uptime anonymous/ssl proxy server. PM me if you need help.
