Weaver might have been able to catch or knock down that ball, but he let it go.

Yeah, i saw that too. He thought 2nd baseman could get it for the DP, and regretted it.

[mrtwinsfan]

Nice patient a.b. again Urshela

I'm at work ... Brahms 1 ... so awesome, by the best orchestra in the U.S. and one of the best in the world. (I still give that nod to Berlin)

Cool!

 

I think radio had a recording of that earlier today, and i stopped to listen.

 

Don't know much Brahms (or Mahler, so i could be conflating the two)

[cHawk]

Great work AK!

[Mill1634]

[stringer bell]

[Mill1634]

[Aggies7]

[stringer bell]

Okay, I won't gripe about catchers DHing....................today

[sampleSizeOfOne]

More bases with each hit.

 

 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Not bad.

[stringer bell]

Six runs lead for Bundy is enough for at least one inning.

[Parfigliano]

AZ announcers just compared Bundy to Rick Sutcliffe

One of my all-time favorite works is Brahms Trio in B Major. So beautiful.

...and The Clash

[stringer bell]

Gio really likes that first pitch, especially with runners on.

[Mill1634]

I'm not complaining, but why the hell is Luke Weaver still in this game?

[Aggies7]

This poor pitcher being left in to rot

Trying to get him stretched out so he can throw the full batting practice session, I think.

 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Hits coming in bunches, eh?

He has swung at all 5 pitches thrown to him,  pitcher finally threw one near the zone, 

[jimbo92107]

9-0.... That's pretty good for my blood pressure, I bet.

Not Kirilloff specifically, but adding his bat may have increased the pressure on the opposing pitcher enough to cause disruptions in his plan. I'd like to see this exact lineup for a couple games, see if they score more runs in bunches.
