Former GATOR Players

Speaking of Harrison Bader, he hit a bomb that hit a painting the mascot was working on.

I hope this video works:

 

Zunino swinging a hot bat last night as the Rays sweep the BJays going 2-4, HR, 2 RBI

 

David Ross had better get his Cubs hitting. They are 6 outs away from going 0-2 with the team currently being shut-out.

 

Marlins win 2-0 to sweep and advance

 

Wow, surprised Marlins even made the playoffs. Anything can happen in these little miniseries tho.

 

David had a very successful first year. Won the NL Central. Definitely going to look back and think what might have been but he still added a banner. Always a good year.

 

WTF was Ross doing with corners in with two outs and runners at first and second and the game close?

I was all WTF seeing that.

And it didn't work out for him.

 

When you score 0 runs, situations like the one you are describing are irrelevant...

But to your point, he probably left Yu in a little too long as well. Some mistakes on his part but it was his first season.

 

But he has been around the block a few times.

Two outs with runners first and second you play back so that any grounder other than a really slow roller is a sure out at three different bases. And the worst case scenario with a slow roller is bases loaded with two outs if your team doesn't make an error. First and second means that a shot down the line that gets by will be a bases clearing double.

I had no dog in that game and was just watching, but it seemed like a boneheaded defensive call.

 

DOD with a scoreless inning for the Braves today.

Z had a tough day yesterday. Went 0-2 and had a tough block get away in the 1st which led to a run. Wild pitch for sure but I am sure he would say he could have handled it. Snell was tough yesterday with a number of pitches in the dirt.

 

Zunino hit a 2 run HR tonight. Rays lead NY in game 2 6-4.

 

Zunino with the go ahead base knock last night!

Mike Zunino's RBI single | 10/12/2020

 

And his defense behind the plate especially blocking bounced pitches in the dirt with his body is truly a clinic. He blocks the ball with his chest leaning forward creating a downward angle that deadens the ball close to him so that he can control the loose ball.

To my knowledge anyway, that’s exactly how you draw it up.

 

Z doesnt hit for average, but he does seem to get a lot of key hits, at least when I'm watching and his defense is stellar.

 

If the Stros are going down, I want it to be to Tampa and Mike. He has had 2 big days in a row. Well played Mike.

 

Tampa Bay area doesn't deserve the Rays. Pitiful fan support to the extent that they wanted to play a bunch of games in Montreal.

And a really ugly stadium.

They do have a solid team, though.

 

DOD had a rough outing yesterday giving up 2 ER in 0.1 IP.

Curious if he gets the ball today to try to rebound. ATL is getting destroyed 12-0 in the 2nd. Can’t win this game so getting the remaining 21 outs needs to have a purpose. Who needs the work and who doesn’t...
