vs. DEVIL RAYS 9/13

[Don Quixote]

Nice job going to the opposite field.

[isestrex]

These Rays aren't the Rays we're used to... so many little defensive mistakes this year.

[J.D.]

Don't hate on Wolverine.

Wolverine is the greatest. Luke Scott, you are no Wolverine.

Manny - Manny -Manny -Manny -Manny -Manny....

In related super-hero news.......HULK smash.

[J.D.]

Pretty sure that was a change.

Changes break!

[OFFNY]

It was. Still, it was a decent plate appearance by Adam. He laid off the 2-2 pitch, and made Hellickson work for the K.

That WAS NOT a good plate appearance by Machado right there.

[J.D.]

Oof. All three of those pitches were not fair.

[BmoreMatt]

Not every pitcher has a change as good as Hellicksons' either. His breaks .. a good bit.

Mark Reynolds looks like Elton John when he was The Pinball Wizard in 1975.

First time facing Hellickson (I believe), all part of the learning process. You don't see many of those Hellickson quality changeups at AA.

[gmelson26]

So anyone else worried about Chen in about circa inning 4?

Good point. He also didn't have to face Bundy/Gausman-like heat at AA, because he got promoted to the Orioles before they were sent up there, and they are in OUR organization.

[WEAVERMAN]

Are we making Hell work?

[Juanvald]

Reynolds taking a snooze in this series.

Yep, the hot streak is most definitely over. Ah well, hopefully he doesn't return to form from earlier in the year.
