StL 2019 Game 158 thread: Tue 9/24 at D-backs

[Cardinal in France]

9 hrs difference. It’s 9 a.m. here.

[Wooster]

Pitch Ponce next time instead of Gant.

[858booyah]

I’ll say it once again…

Ponce De Leon has the make up as a 8th or 9th inning guy. Just love how he carries himself. I think it’s a mistake to exclude him off the playoff roster with his attributes. Can be a long man and can close. Throwing strikes can be an issue but I like this guy in some late inning situations.

[Wooster]

This game reminds me of a marathon where O’ Quendo ended up pitching when they ran out if pitchers

[Carter Le Grand]

Yup….but we gonna lose this one…but I feel no pain (hic)

[Carter Le Grand]

.BADER makes the catch!

[Ratsbuddy]

Me and Whitey Herdog are still here. Gone through three cigars in this one – so far.

Congratulations to those who are too stubborn (like me) to go to bed.

Lol, after Bader bunted for a single to lead off the 17th, one of the DBack’s announcers said, “After 17 innings somebody finally figured out you don’t always need to try to hit a home run.”

[Carter Le Grand]

Does your wife know where you are,BW?

[Euro Dandy]

Fowler has been a strikeout machine. He’s got the hat trick in extra innings alone, and four for the night to go with his four in the previous game.

“Lol, after Bader bunted for a single to lead off the 17th, one of the DBack’s announcers said, “After 17 innings somebody finally figured out you don’t always need to try to hit a home run.”

But easily forgotten

[Carter Le Grand]

Do it Goldy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Euro Dandy]

Bader was on first with no outs in 17th inning of a tie game and he was still there with two outs. Shildt shouldn’t let that happen.

[Carter Le Grand]

Have you not noticed, Euro? No green light if tied or behind. He’s gutless in a close situation.

[Euro Dandy]

And now Bader doesn’t score even though there was another hit after his single. Evidently manufacturing a run in the 17 inning affair is not something they want to be bothered with.

[Euro Dandy]

Leone in. I would say we are nearing the end.

[Carter Le Grand]

I TOLD you Shildt was gutless! Scroll up

[Euro Dandy]

Carter, that was one of the biggest head scratchers I’ve seen in a while. It’s not a thinking man’s night.

[858booyah]

Leone will end up giving this up.

[Carter Le Grand]

Leone in. I would say we are nearing the end.

At this point I don’t give a good G.D!

[Euro Dandy]

Give Leone credit, he managed to wiggle out of the ending.

[Euro Dandy]

This is the game where Mo is going to regret trading Gyorko.

We could use his arm.

[Euro Dandy]

DBacks announcers are railing on both teams for their hitting approaches tonight.

[Euro Dandy]

Ozuna, Yadi and Carp just put together 3 of the ugliest ABs you would want to see in the 18th. Three more Ks. Balls that bounce before reaching the batter must be real hard to hit. It’s amazing how the DBacks keep bringing in one Cy Young after another to mow down these hitters.
