Now we'll throw our closer in and then rely on a bunch of duds if we go extras

So true. Tie game. If we go to the 10th inning Kepler's spot comes back up and San Diego probably has only righties left.

 

Prerry clear Buxtons wrist is still bothering him. No other reason to be bunting with 2 out and a runner in first.

So, Molitor needs a reason to call for a bunt????????????????????????/

I really really really really dislike pinch hitting Kepler every. Single. Time. Late. In. Games.

He could help that by not being helpless against LHers.

0-whatever with RISP....ugh

Watch yesterday, troll? (Sarcasm)

Buxton was playing in international falls

Seriously.... why the heck would they have Buxton play that deep?

Id bet a lot that wasn't Molitor

Well, there's that.

.129 for Kepler to .311 for Adrianza against lefties. I get the move, but a guy can't improve against lefties if he doesn't get to bat against them.

And then broke for Canada before coming in

Note that the NL team isn't bunting.

No review no review. No review

 Surely not there, but it was still funny.

Never mind. Great tag by Polanco

Double play and all is well.

I've been saying that all year. However, you can't let it cost you games at this point. My usual disagreement is not having Kepler START vs LHP. I actually have no problem pinch hitting for him there.

I could swear that Molitor is signaling the Padre batter to bunt !

what about Adrianza in left? Uff da

Ticklish

Not looking good here boys and girls

If you are going to use Belisle, why wouldn't you start the inning with him?

Man, hrbek is a giant man in this heating and cooling commercial

Three run bomb forthcoming?

Busenitz has a 12% swing and miss %. Anyone else think that is low given his stuff? Just seems like he isn't quite there yet with command. More thrower than pitcher. Granted, he's still just getting his feet wet at the MLB level.
