I'll bet you a nickel you'll be back

Seriously, Spencer Jones was given a walk in this AB.

Nice DP by Billy Cook to rescue Chayce McDermott from his own rough first inning.

move the runner Adley

GRod has had an injury twice. The first time, he really struggled with his mechanics when he came back.

Seems to be the same issue this time too.

Sometimes the hardest part of coming back from an injury is the mental hurdle. Wonder if there’s something he’s concerned about in the back of his mind that’s causing him to do the same stuff as before?  (Or maybe he will be fine as this game goes on but interesting nonetheless)

Holiday doing his best Henderson impression--leadoff HR.

[Roy Firestone]

NO K Adley...move the runner..

[justD]

And a leadoff homerun to CF by Holliday, on a 2-1 count

[Roy Firestone]

move the runner OHEARN

It could be a lot of things. Young pitcher still learning? Possible. Not going to be the guy we thought he would be? Possible.

GRod is fine, they hit some good pitches; what are you gonna do. Nobody’s questioning his health if those pitches result in outs.

Or maybe sometimes good pitchers don't execute?
