Saturday 6/15 vs. Philadelphia

[Billy F-Face3]

That was a huicy 1st pitch

[Bemorewins]

We finally found a Phils reliever that we could jump on.

I have a feeling we're still gonna see Kimbrel. I don't trust Vespi/Baker to keep us out of a save situation.

Gunnar still looks angry from that knockdown pitch.

Absolutely. Can inly imagine the adrenaline rush and he seems to be channeling it into a real head of steam. 

[oriolediehard]

Might as well leave Baker in.

“Santa comes early” should be a regular radio call. You should send that in. I doubt the crew’s ability think it up on their own.

If I could figure it out I would.  LOL>

It’s Kimbrel

You were right. 

[Philip]

With a four run lead, there’s no reason not to bring Baker back out. Save the cartridges for tomorrow.
 

As an aside, I always hate it when people say, “save the bullets“ because the loaded round is called a cartridge. The bullet is just a projectile.

A holdover from my army days…

But still true.

[dystopia]

Hyde's lucky putting in Baker didn't blow up in his fac.e

[spiritof66]

Great job by Baker keeping the ball away from Harper so he couldn't pull the ball.

[Uli2001]

Kimbrel seen grumbling to himself now that they took away his save opportunity. (It's a joke.)

[eddie83]

Off day Monday helps.

You said he hasn't been pitching well. That is false.

I said he's not a very good pitcher and not a leverage reliever, I stand by that. He showed it again last night in a leverage situation.

Brown just said, “and he scores and it’s a three run lead.”
The man cannot add ha ha ha

He preemptively gave the Phillies a run since Baker was pitching.
