Orioles vs. Rays 4/12/09 Game 3

[Hank Scorpio]

Ugh he gave into Gabe Friggin' Gross.

I can see that two seamer ending up on the flag court before long. 88-90 with enough tail to put it right back into the middle of the plate.

Eaton's throwing a lot of pitches.

He is not good. I'm saying he's awful or terrible, just that he's not good. I hope he does better and I am pleasantly surprised with 3 SO.

[Palmer Esque]

Man the Rays are pesky And patient...

[J.D.]

Ugh he gave into Gabe Friggin' Gross.

Ew. Gross.

Pitch Count = 45

Because it's a fastball count, probably.

You see how the Rays hitter are working Eaton. We should be doing the same thing.

[Ruzious]

What's the over/under on how many innings Eaton goes? 4?

We have so far.

[itsernst]

Eaton is getting ahead of batters, but it doesn't seem he can finish them off. He is approaching 50 pitches and he isn't even out of the second inning.

[J.D.]

What's the over/under on how many innings Eaton goes? 4?

At this rate, he'll be at about 100 pitches in the 4th.

[GotNitro]

I'll take that under at this point. He will be at 100 pitches by the end of the fourth.

[Scrat1]

Could really use a double play here..

[wickedwitch]

Ew. Gross.

That's not any more funny than it was last night.

It's a lot harder to do when you're facing a good pitcher. Eaton just doesn't have the stuff to put anyone away. Shields has at least 2 plus pitches in his changeup and his sinker.

Need a DP like a flower needs rain.
