It is a little concerning that our offense relies so much on the HR in order to score … I would really like to see us manufacture runs alot better. That starts with hitting in RISP situations ALOT better, but especially getting those runners in from 3rd with less than two outs …
Exactly.. we are terrible at manufacturing runs and situational hitting. It’s becoming a lost art in general in the big leagues. The teams that do it well are the ones who win consistently. Watching the Rays is so refreshing.
Yep. Rays are a perfect example … They can’t compete with us talent-wise but what they DO do is they execute ALOT better than we do … We definitely need to get better.
Yes, yes, what you’re saying is all accurate, but damn dude,
can we enjoy the victory for 5 nano seconds on this nice SoCal day? It’s cool to appreciate the moment, too.
I don’t celebrate any win that doesn’t secure a series win or add on to one … Yes, I am happy about today. Actually, it is more RELIEF than happiness.. This was a must win… but overall that 3-4 homestand is very disappointing considering that we were up 2-0 on Chicago and lost the next two… And with just a little more hitting we could have taken the Arizona series….
Could be a blessing in disguise … Hopefully it will fire him up even more to continue his save streak in the 2nd half and be even MORE dominant then he is…. What that means is fewer walks and more 1, 2, 3 innings…
Erica, where is Erica dammit
In the booth with creepy old Bobby V
Good win .. all on homers again and way too many strike outs .. but good win against a legit ace

Completely agree.
People are looking at strike out, I’m looking at a victory powered by great pitching and homers by 3 of our top 5 hitters.
Let’s get a streak started tomorrow in SD. We’re thinking about hitting tomorrow’s game down there.
The halo shines tonight.
Playoffs?
F’ Yes !!!!
We’re great again
WIN!
Perdomo STFD. LTBU!
Tighten your sphincter’s.
Damn! What a battle by Fletch’s little bro. That’s TWO.
No worries he got Fletcher power.
Concern level high
Little bit lower now.
Those Fletcher boys….such power
Dominic is as pesky as his brother.
But much faster.
Dumb ass review.
Moose tagged the base first.
The D backs are rabbits.
That Ohtani HR might be needed
Carroll is fast.
Alright: show ’em they were wrong for snubbing you for the ASG, Estevez.
Baltimore’s setup man did not deserve the nod over Estevez.
Nor did Cleveland’s Clase

Baseball is extra fun when the Rally Monkey can chill next to me with a beer and not have to go into “rally mode…..”
We be enjoying this game….
Great pitching (Detmers) and 3 dingers with one Troutani……..
The difference between Shoehei’s HR and Bonds is cheating Bonds used steroids.
Must be the Sushi Deluxe he consumes.
Must be the Fugu!
At your service, sir.
Oishii so
