Fellows last inning who comes in next? Or does Corbs ride him one more inning. Nice he righted the ship and kept us in it thanks Drake!

Need baserunners now.
Put some pressure on this pitcher. We need to hit him while the change up is MIA.

He just pitched his best inning. I say give him a chance to get one more inning - with a short hook as he goes over 100 pitches.

He has come back strong. A shame he had gotten his pitch count so high early.

So many squibbers. Not being patient. Jumping on floaters. Disappointing discipline. Walks are scoring. We aren’t walking.

We are, again, over-eager. Martin jumps on first pitch for a dribbler. Wish our guys had a better plan for offspeed stuff tonight.
We knew it was coming. We seem jumpy even ahead in the count.

It's easy to gameplan for afar but our strategy tonight just doesnt look very good. Their bullpen appears to be as average as ours. We need to force their starters into high pitch counts and get them out of the game as early as possible. Realistically we arent going to put up a ton of runs on their starters. But we could probably light up their pen. So many first pitch swings leading to easy outs. This guy will easily cruise through 7 innings. The only question is will they be able to get a complete game out of him or will he only make it somewhere around the 8th inning.
We on the otherhand will be going to the bullpen way too early and we can only pray it's still a game by the time the 8th inning rolls around.

Gonna give Corbs credit for sticking with Fellows after 2 he ate 4 innings and kept us in the game. Now need third out.

Exactly.
We are keeping this guy in the game. Keeping his count low.
Go up and sit fastball on the first one. It will never come - but add to his count.

I don't want to hear anything about the ump. He just gifted King a strike.
