I don't know how Martinez's nervous old lady rock is allowed pre pitch.

Somebody needs to Photoshop him on a rocking chair.

It’s dumb but it’s allowed cause it’s consistent. 

Well it was. Now he’s stopped it.

need more runs...

[Malike]

I don't have the data to back it up, but it FEELS like Adley chases more against RHP than LHP.

It wouldn't be, if Balkin' Bob were the ump.

[Roy Firestone]

I wonder if Hyde lets Means go one more...he should...

I was hoping they were going to bring Cowser in in a crucial spot for a key strikeout.

Well at least we know now he didn't injure his wrist like I thought he might have the other day, whiffing against Rodon I think.

Cowser may be slumping but he needs ABs to hit his way out of it. PHing for McKenna was the right move.

Ok I say we get Albert Suarez in the game tonight. Means is approaching his limit for this 1st start. He's still doing good but that warning track fly ball is a red flag.

[Moose Milligan]

I hope in the depths of my soul that his 17 whiffs will be enough to satisfy SG’s thirstiness for whiffs. 

[Aristotelian]

This must be so great for Means. Imagine rehabbing for over a year to come back and to pitch a gem like this.

I say you need to go have a glass of milk if you think a warning track fly ball makes you nervous.

I agree, but he looked reeeeeally bad.

[Tony-OH]

Means is pitching like a video game right now.
