Wow, that might be the best play I've ever seen Santander make.

His flirtations with 2-way upside are some of why I'm rooting for an Arb3 hold.    We'll learn these three months if he isn't traded if he could hold up ~600 PA.

Hope Austin told Correa, "Nice play, man" there.

Since pitching into trouble in the 2nd this may be the best I remember seeing Lyles pitch.

Lyles dealing today.

Even there, the trouble really came with Nevin’s error that at least for now has been scored a hit.

So Brown noted that Cotton is from the US VIrgin Islands, and says he is only one of four players ever to throw a pitch from the USVI.

And the inning ended, and it went to commercial.

He had better complete the discussion when he gets the chance, because beloved Oriole Elrod Hendricks is one of the other three.

Lyles’ tank may be emptying here.  Long at bat. 

[Frobby]

And, a homer.   Hope someone’s up in the pen.

Tate's been up.

Good decision.   Great game by Lyles, but he was looking tired this inning.

I was speaking more to the situation in which he found himself. He did, however, give up a double that inning. He did well to end the inning without allowing a run.

Must’ve been a lot of one-pitch hits.
