Hanging slider = HR

[emmett16]

Sorry buck, not a change up

[The Rick]

Batting practice, doesn't appear to have any life at all on his pitches today.

And Rios with a liner up the middle.

Take a deep breath, Brian.

[Hank Scorpio]

He's getting a lot of swings & misses, but he's also getting smacked around.

What'll be interesting is how he pitches after getting b-slapped around like this.

[mrbig1]

Bass up in the bullpen.

[emmett16]

Uffff - not pretty.

[epic]

Pulling him already? Not sure if I agree with that just right now...

[bce086]

Eh this game has just lost my attention now...

[Hank Scorpio]

Time to watch some golf!!!!!!

[Great 2BA FL Gator]

Wow really? I guess they noticed he had nothing today as well. Wasn't just location, because he was only at 60 pitches.

I was actually looking for our young guys to be rocked a time or two early on.... we're looking for composure and the ability to bounce back. You'll get em next time, Brian. :clap3:
