1-4 after three trips through the order:
0 hits, 8 strikeouts, 8 LOB and a whopping TWO pitches put in play. That's the top of our lineup through 6 innings against a guy who was spinning every other slider right into the middle of the zone and it simply did not matter.
They're !@#$ing hopeless up there.
And really, the Pirates look like shit now that Brebbia is actually throwing major league quality stuff at them. So when we gift them 4 innings of batting practices mixed in with intentional passes and then elect to swing through pretty much everything thrown up there, we're gonna have a bad time.
Please someone tell me Dex broke his toe. I can totally root for that. It's just a ****ing toe and he'll be fine. It won't impact his quality of life or anything and all the mopey ****s on Twitter can shutup about me wishing injury on a player. Please tell me that he broke his damn toe.
