chitownsportsfan Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Smart idea by Moncada to come out swinging this AB knowing Keuchel has been throwing a lot over the plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleHurt05 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 08:48 PM) Austin Jacksons was better but Engels was pretty awesome I still think Austin Jackson's catch should have been ruled a home run, but rules are rules.

I have to pull out the OOTP 17 scouting description "This kid will see a massive amount of pitches over his career". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suddenly those close 3-2 fastballs aren't catching any plate and he's walking instead of striking out. He's looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScootsMcGoots Posted August 9, 2017 Author Share Posted August 9, 2017 The team with the worst record by far in the AL is destroying the team with the best record by far in the AL...helllooooo baseball. It is a nice feeling to be pounding a team for once, let alone the Astros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautox Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Am I crazy or did the ump and Yoan lose track of the count? should he have walked to pitches earlier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 (edited) Quintana has actually raised his season ERA pitching in the NL. That's a bit of a shocker. Coop magic?

southsider2k5 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Finally saw the Engel catch. I mean the wall scaling was enough by itself, but if you look at the very first shot of him when the camera comes on, he is slightly into left center field and not very deep. He ran an absolutely perfect route to even give himself a chance to make that play... before he scaled the fence. I hope Engel can hit at all because I LOVE him in CF.

oldsox Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 8, 2017 -> 08:42 PM) With no outs, you're supposed to tag You don't tag up at first unless you are pretty damn sure the ball is going to be caught. Just saw why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
