O’s vs Rays, Split Squad 2/25

[Enjoy Terror]

Comment that John Means was very excited about the Kansas City Chiefs Superbowl win.

Wind-aided triple for Brandon Lowe. DSJ lost it. McDonald commenting that Smith should've accounted for the wind in his positioning.

Ground ball single through to left center for Daniel Robertson, drives in Lowe. Infield was drawn in.

Nate Lowe strikes out on a 1-2 92mph fastball. One out.

Unsure about that. I use my phone.

Took Means out for pitch count? Not hurt himself on the throw ?

[Enjoy Terror]

Talking about that they don't put in scheduled pitchers to clean up innings, so they use guys like Flaa instead to finish innings.

Commenting on Flaa's great change ups; three in a row to Cozens for the second out.

Basehit for Brosseau. Robertson scores. LaMarre to third.

Pitch count.

Meadows line drive to Alberto to end the inning. Two score, end of two. 2-0 Rays

Jalen Beeks in for the Rays.

DSJ slow tapper to Zunino, thrown out at first. Comment on his struggles last year after hot start; McDonald said his bat is good enough but defense needs to be his focus to be major league guy.

Iglesias another tapper in front of the plate, retired for out two. Sounded like the ball rolled out of bounds so he was automatically out? EDIT: Batter interference.

Severino chopper to 2B and thrown out. Quick inning.

Castro 3rd - walk, GIDP, walk

smh

[scOtt]

Walk.

Miguel Castro in, top of 3. Zunino, Martinez, B. Lowe.

High praise for Castro's 2019. Continues to works on mechanics. McDonald comments on his height (6'7) being problematic for consistency. Thinks Castro / Harvey / Givens will be 7/8/9. Thinks Miguel is a lot like Tanner Scott with the same problems. Can be dominant with sinker when he has his stuff. Compares five years of issues to Nolan Ryan and Randy Johnson having consistency issues before they figured it out.

Hit 95 on pitch to the backstop during Zunino's AB. Walked on 4 pitches.

Jose Martinez grounds to shortstop, 6-4-3 double play. Comment on Iglesias being smooth and flashy. O's fans will love it.

Lowe walks on 3-2 count. 

Daniel Robertson goes 0-2 early. Goes full on 2-2, Castro and booth thought it was a strikeout. Castro walks Robertson on full count. Looking at bullpen due to pitch count, have RHP warming up.

Nate Lowe strikes out to end the top half of the inning.

Chaz Roe for the Rays. Didn't we have him?
