Perez has been a disaster lately. Not liking this move.

Hyde is a bad manager. 

What is Hyde to do?  He was dealt a hand full of unclutch high draft picks that have no killer instinct in them.

Adley hitting the ball hard all night. I'm not going to light him up. But Santander has been such a disappointment.

Leaving the bat on his shoulder on that 2-0 pitch is not a composure of a great at bat. 

That is fair.  He should have took a swing at 97 down the middle...

Bobby all world Witt.

Know what?  If we had to suffer through Kevin Brown on this broadcast, you'd hear something like "And the FIRST overall pick in the 2019 draft grounds out to the SECOND overall pick in the 2019 draft..."

He was doing radio yesterday. Chances are he did that as predicted today. 

[Dunk35]

Hyde over-managing IMO

I'm at the game and they didn't show the replay. Why was cowser called out? What happened to him?

He swung. No doubt about it on the replay. Even though it hit him it's a K

Yanking Eflin and not PHing for Cowser are unforced errors. Obviously it’s not all on him but he is actively making it harder for us to win.

Colton is who he is, and he can not avoid a strikeout, he is a strikeout machine.  Adley had a great at bat, just hit it on the nose to Witt.  

Not swinging at that pitch down the middle makes me question how great an AB it really was.

These guys guess. A lot. And if you guess wrong? Bye bye. 

[Billy F-Face3]

Thanks for the answer guys. Sad to see that happen. But I'm thrilled we tied it thanks to Cedric's home run. We are in this game!!!  Gotta believe!

[Just Regular]

Cionel before G. Soto the choice who goes at 1-2-3 next (after 8-9 first).

[Moose Milligan]

Great, Perez.  He's been awful lately.

Got hit by a pitch, yes, but he also swung at strike three so it didn’t matter.

Why was I thinking that a swinging strike, the hands are part of the bat?

I can't believe what I just saw with any of Tony, Colton or Adley.

For Cowser Hyde decision to not pinch hit forced me to look up Angel Zerpa's splits hoping for some rationale explanation, but nope, Zerpa does not have reverse splits.

Adley basically hit the same ball Witt did yesterday except Adley hit it about 10 mph harder but just didn’t pull it quite enough.

Perez scares me...
