I don't think he was warmed up properly. Was Voth warming when Bautista was warming or only after the Mullins HR? Voth has always been a guy who needs a bit to warm up which is why he typically needs a whole half an inning to get warmed.

And then you still have to use Bautista as it turns out. Oh well, can't really kill Hyde for that. If you have a chance to rest the big guns you take it.

I also think that box on TV skews the perception of the strike zone.

There we go Felix! One more!

[Moose Milligan]

First nasty low splitter in like a month.

[eddie83]

Wow. 

[Gurgi]

Umpire has a date tonight!!!

[FlaO'sFan]

Another strike...hahaha.

[eddie83]

Split here.

He totally should have had that but Mountcastle clumsey body may have blocked his view.

Just another day in the Ryan Mountcastle experience.

Frazier had a shot at backing up that ball.

Mountcastle got in the way.

No, I have no issue with sitting Bautista, but Voth should have been warming with Bautista, nit just after the homer. Voth is not that guy that can get warm quickly.

[eddie83]

Nice.

Thank you, Felix.
