For some reason I was thinking Hjerpe was a whippy arm guy throwing whiffle balls that could go anywhere. Just the opposite. Looks to have total command over everything.
I also noticed on the E4 throw that ended up in the dugout, Bernal was about halfway down there, at a jog. Nobody not named Yadi would be in position to save that, but the lack of effort to be in position is noted. By me at least. Noticed it yesterday which is why I was paying attention to where he was. Obviously, nothing was said to him, which means there is no expectation.
Well, an E4 and a difficult but catchable ball not caught in LF and its 1-0 bad guys. Now 2-0 after the first. Leahy at 26 pitches. Not sure what pitch count he’s on.
Bryan Torres (L) 2B
Iván Herrera (R) DH
Alec Burleson (L) 1B
Jordan Walker (R) RF
Leo Bernal (S) C
Joshua Báez (R) LF
Nolan Gorman (L) 3B
Thomas Saggese (R) SS
Nathan Church (L) CFIt sucks that JJ got bunged up and then had to go on the shelf. I feel sorry for him. Well, as sorry as I’m going to feel for someone who is going to make gobs of money no matter what. The RoY race added a layer of interest, and you never know.
Bad defense and poor fundamentals is more upsetting to me than anything else.
I should have turned if off too KCB. I was appalled the whole time and seriously it was bad for my health.
Just a heads up, we are going to get tired of seeing Bernal behind the plate.
I guess last night’s loss was so upsetting to watch nobody wanted to post a comment for 10 hours.
Even if you are a team that isn’t going to spend a ton and hire up all the stars, you can still be a team that does everything right.
Even with two teams not going anywhere, I am sure the speed and intensity of a ML game is a lot for a new guy to take on. Its an adjustment process that is painful to watch.
This 5th has been painful. Libby failed to back up home which almost got Bernal hurt when he had to try to run after the overthrow. Bernal with two weak efforts that let a couple get away. Then a throw goes into CF for whatever reason. All of it contributed to the Rox inning. I really hate shabby play.
