That’s the first time I ever got lucky and called one…The Nootz is now 1 HR closer to Rickey’s lead-off tater record!
Agreed, Albert. But this is not the same Victor Dwanyne Scott ll that we saw last year. He’ll be leading off soon.
Haha!…I’m not kidding, JJ. That’s the first time I ever called one! I should get in the truck and head straight for Vegas…It’s my lucky day!
Pugs, I do agree Scott has more in the tank. His swing looks so much better this year. Now he gets a really nice double with his speed.
Mikolas has never really impressed me but, at almost 37 years of age, he’s been around for a while now and has collected almost 1100 innings of work in the Big Leagues. I’m hoping he’ll be one of those SP’ers who develops into the sort of seasoned veteran type SP’er who deploys his past experience and mental prowess on the mound to a degree that he gives certain teams fits. Hey, it could happen…We’ve all seen guys like that who give the Cardinals a difficult time when they take their turn against the Redbirds.
Yeah, JJ, good comparison. Many may recall that Suppan was the 2006 NLCS MVP. He worked a shade more than 15 IP’ed and only surrendered 5 hits in that NLCS. He worked the pressure cooker game 7 at old Shea Stadium and made possible the late inning heroics from Molina and Wainwright. The Redbirds don’t win anything without Suppan in ’06.
Whoa…Baker’s eyes lit up like he hit the jackpot on that 3-2 offering. Up in his eyes and he just missed it. Draws the BB to give Nado a chance. Need to extend this 1 run lead.
There we go…Big 2 out RBI base hit from Nado! Not crazy about the baserunning though. Oh well, 3-1 Redbirds.
Mikolas lack of walks keeps him in the zone, but it’s also a bad place for mistakes. Disrupt timing and live on the edges as his best case? He has been capable of that.
