After 3

4-4 tie game

 

[aUTfan]

Dang it!!

 

[Chop]

After 3, pitch counts

Grubbs...........55
Garcia............70

Holiday already had relievers warming up in the Pokes' pen.

 

[Chop]

Dang it!!

With this wind, that one might have gone.

 

[Chop]

We could really use 3 quality innings 4, 5, 6 by Grubbs here. If he's still on, then 7

Max got beat up in the 3rd. Let's see if he bounces back here.

 

[Chop]

Top of the 4th

Ground out to Powell. That looks like the normal Max Grubbs, and that fielding looks like the normal Powell.

 

[Chop]

Grubbs

K

2 down

 

[Chop]

Ground out to D Kennedy

3 up
3 down
for Max Grubbs and the Texas D

 

[Chop]

Bottom of the 4th

Gasparino will lead off.

Last at bat, he struck out looking at a ball just above his ankles.

Looks like Bubba Garcia will remain on the mound for the Pokes.
He's thrown 70 pitches coming into the bottom of the 4th.

 

[Chop]

Gaspo

grounds out

1 away

Let's see if D Kennedy can get on base here.

 

[Chop]

D Kennedy

Pops out in foul territory.

2 away.

 

[Chop]

Thomas

K.

After 4

It's 4-4

That's some really bad numerology in East Asia right there.

 

[Chop]

After 4 innings, pitch counts:
Grubbs...........67
Garcia............86


15 x 4 = 60, so Grubbs is just a tad over the target rate of 15 pitches/inning.

 

[Chop]

Top of the 5th.

Yeah!

Hi pop out to Galvan on the first pitch.

 

[Chop]

Walk.

1 on
1 down

 

[Chop]

Some big bats are up this inning for the Pokes.

Grubbs can't leave any meat hanging over the middle of the plate here.

 

[Chop]

Ground out fielders choice.

DK to Flores. Couldn't turn the double.

1 on
2 outs

 

[Chop]

Now a first pitch ground out to Flores! Strong arm by Flores there.

on the bottom of the 5th.

4-4

 

[aUTfan]

Flores is the one with stone hands on the DP and next batter makes a great play across the field to end the inning.
