Freeman HR, apparently.

Muncy works a leadoff walk in the second.

Tucker inexplicably drops a bunt and gets Muncy nabbed at second. Thanks, Kyle!

Ward Ks on three pitches. Two out.

Steve Sax said...

Mookie reaches on an infield single but Muncy Ks for the second out.

Here’s the $60M .234 hitter

Tucker Ks. Betts, who stole second, is stranded.

Sheehan with a K to strand the two-out double. Six Ks for Emmet

Ryan Ward with a leadoff double in the top of the fifth.

Rushing pulls a productive out to the first base side. Ward to third. Here’s Freeland with one out.

Steve Sax said...

Full count to Alex Freeland

Steve Sax said...

Freeland Ks. Ward almost picked off of third.

Ohtani IBBd

Old guy in the crowd (behind Pages while AB as a right-handed hitter), with a wacky bright yellow m&m’s jacket. What the heck, dude. You look ridiculous.

Steve Sax said...

Pages grounds to second, forcing Ohtani. Dammit

Steve Sax said...

Jumbo Jack!!!

Steve Sax said...

Tucker actually got a hit! Advances Betts to third with two out.

Steve Sax said...

Ward Ks and strands two. It’s 1-0, mid-6.

Steve Sax said...

Emmet gives up a bomb. It’s tied.

Steve Sax said...

Sheehan is rattled. He gives up three straight hits and the lead. He leaves with a man on second, no out in the sixth, down 2-1.

Steve Sax said...

All those missed opportunities at the plate have come back to haunt us.

Steve Sax said...

Jack Dreyer comes in and we are promptly down 6-1. Thanks, Jack!

Steve Sax said...

Leadofff double from Rushing in the eight-hole, and all we can get is one run. Fuck this.

6-2 CHW at the stretch.

Steve Sax said...

That was an amazing AB from Freeland. Down 0-2, works it full, then ropes a double down the right field line to score Rushing from third.

6-4 Chicago.

Steve Sax said...

Chicago does a four-pitch unintentional intentional walk to Ohtani.

Steve Sax said...

Full count to Pages

Steve Sax said...

Freeman Ks to end the game. Dammit.
