Mancini needs to hit the weight room.

Great approach.  If they shift and give you a giant hole the opposite way, then go with it.  Very nicely done.

[mrbig1]

Mountcastle again.

[SteveA]

Hays takes care of the hitting streak early tonight.

Four doubles already in the game.

[emmett16]

Time for Lyles to make an adjustment. 

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

Hays is now batting .303 for the season.

He has taken his game to another level.

10 pitch inning, 2 groundouts and a strikeout.

Seems like a pretty good adjustment!

[SilverRocket]

Mateo would've caught it.

[Tony-OH]

That is 100% the outfielders ball. No way that should drop in. Mullins has to be coming in hard and calling off Owings there.

[emmett16]

Why is Owings on this team? Ugh 

[Morgan423]

I was telling my wife earlier that Chris Owings is like the baseball equivalent of that scene in Wayne's World 2 where that bad actor comes out and flatly bungles his line, and Mike Myers breaks the fourth wall, turns and says to the crew, "Do we have to put up with this? I mean, can't we get a better actor? I know it's a small part, but I think we can do better than this!"

[emmett16]

Def Mullins ball there but you gotta squeeze that if your a MLB short stop.

That was not an easy catch for him. Hit his glove so he should have caught it, but Mullins started jogging way too early instead of taking over that play.
