OH MAN! What a long swooping swing from Jacobs for a homerun. NOT GOOD

If Pie could get on base more often and steal like Willy Mays Hayes then we'd be good to go!

I swear they have a lot of the same mannerisms on the baseball field.

Back to the real Eaton.

Pie might have had it if it wasn't for the dang fence being in the way...

buck actually made a good comment there about greinke not throw a pitch the same speed to the same batter.

According to Gameday, his first 8 pitches of the game were 4 seam fastballs between 91-94 mph. Later in the inning Huff saw 2 fastballs both at 95. 3 of the first 4 batters saw at least 2 pitches all fastballs of virtually the same speed.

The fence didn't stop Robin yount years ago, of course the fences are a lot different now!

Eaton almost has given up as many earned runs as Greinke has all season. He's super good. What a battery, Eaton(7.48 era) and Zaun(.198 ba)

[alaniee]

Is this for real? Eaton pretty much done in the 4th?? Is this how far he can go?!?

I'm actually hoping we O's fans vote enough for Zaun to be in the all star game. That'd be something eh - has anyone made the all star game hitting below .200 ?

He's pitching for his life. This is as good as it gets.

What you said about Eaton you could say about most SP's in most games.

66 pitches through 3 innings. Isn't the whole thing about the calvary is don't bring them up because they can only go 5 innings? Right?

I'm not going to deny your observation there's a difference between 91 and 94, but prior to Buck's comment I thought greinke was doing a good job changing speeds between fastballs...they've been ranging from 91-96 on the MASN gun.
