MLB should not allow this. It’s an incredible disservice to the people who bought tickets.

If ever there’s a time to swing for the fences, it’s now

Hendricks has 80 pitches in 7th inning
Apparently, he told Ray he’s done for the night?!?
Why not pitch 8th,?

Peraza has been a virtual error machine.

Peraza is worse at 1B than Rengifo is at 3B

Not a Peraza fan at all. At least 4, maybe 5 errors in his brief stint here. No more sunshine blown up our skirts about having a great glove.

This umpire has missed a lot of calls

I’ve been lobbying for the Neto Trout swap for some time and they’re finally giving it a try.

Yeah, I was saying a couple of months back that Trout should be batting leadoff. The high OBP and declining power made it a no brainer.

Especially since Neto never walks.

Trout now with 2 hits, 2 runs scored.
Just need that HR – possibly 2 more ABs tonight

5-0 is better than 4-0

60% of the time more runs than the other team works every time.

I’ll be at the game tomorrow. Praying that Adell is back.

Vertigo typically takes 1-6 weeks to resolve.
If so, he won’t play until next Monday

It must be pissing so many people off here that Trout is getting hits.

I know you want to hate him for some bizarre reason.

Brent

I’m happy for him to get hits.

He just doesn’t seem to have *power* anymore. Clearly something is wrong that we don’t know about. He’s about the exceed his longest time without hitting a HR. That just doesn’t happen without an injury of some sort happening that this club is withholding from us (certainly not a first).

Skill set decline. I don’t think there is any other story.

No hate. Just frustration at so many strike outs, including multiple check swing Ks (something I don’t recall him doing much in past years).
