Sheez Larry, I’m glad that hanging on to a ball after a tag isn’t much of a thing anymore.

DJ has to shrink his zone. He’s swung at every pitch he’s seen so far, and he chased an 0-1 and 0-2 out of the zone.

His mechanics looks fine though.

Jay Powell keeps saying he's just got to not be so anxious to hit everything. Won't wait for his pitch and if he gets it he's too quick to it.

he’s completely mentally gone. would be a better team if he sit
I get starting him though. If we sit him for a few more games then we might win a few more games. But you’re not in the tournament to win a few more games, we’re here to win it all just like the other 63 are. The only way to win it all is to get our best players playing good ball and that doesn’t happen when we sit them.

Didn’t Larry drop the ball after the tag when his glove hit his own leg?
That’s what it looked like. With the way reviews are going these days, though, I don’t like leaving things to chance and it was just weird for that ball to end up the ground. At no point was there any hard contact with the glove

Between that play, Larry’s weird grip, and some of his recent throws, I’m really starting to wonder if he has an oddly weak grip

He tagged and then moved to run to the dugout. It's an out
Correct. There’s no set time on how long he has to hold on to the ball after he applies the tag. He just has to have possession when the tag is applied, which he appeared to. Whatever happens in the immediate seconds thereafter is immaterial.

Brutal result for Stephen. 2 outs, 2 on and a high fast ball (at the letters) somehow gets dinked into short CF.

2-2

This is 17ing pathetic. We aren't doing shut if we lose the first game. We barely have pitching for 3 games.
