Both Heuer and Crochet looked better tonight than in recent appearances. It is the best takeaway tonight. Our offense has been more of a problem lately than the relievers.
TA swinging at ball 3 when we need to bring the tying run to the plate. Do we have a more patient alternative for lead off? Tim swings at everything, not a good trait for lead off hitter.
All righties against the lefty. Defense should be better without Goodwin and Collins. Needed a break from those two’s defensive mishaps the last few games.
Not surprised to see Jake go. League had learnt how to pitch him with sliders and other breaking pitches, which he could not hit. He needs to build on more discipline at the plate.
