Can't take him out when he is pitching shutout ball!1

Casilla erased in the double play.

So, to those who've been able to watch the entire game, does the box score reflect how well Pelfry has pitched or has he gotten lucky?

The hammer has to wake up and pad this lead!!!!

I wish I could watch it. I have the radio on, and it's competing with my kid's tv program... lol

Are there any free tv games at all this year???

I'd say he's awake now!

He has allowed only 5 hits. I don't recall him having been in any trouble..

yeah, ouch!!!!!!!1

I can't say he's pitched well, but neither has he been in trouble much. It's ugly, but effective.

 

That said, when he melts down, he melts down quickly. We need these insurance runs.

homer for p-fllooof would be good!

Nice AB by Plouffe. DickBert is right about something.

I'll take a double!!!!

Need more of that from Plouffe, but the offense has sure found its rhythm lately.

Well, at least you're not paying for an airport motel stuck in an intermediate city anyway.

 

Plouffe really hit that ball. The Twins certainly packed the hitting shoes from Boston. Maybe they can keep this up for a few months.

Nice to get to their bullpen early in game one.

Thanks for the Pelf analysis guys. Seems kind of like a Correia approach and outing, maybe. At least it's getting better.

 

Keep tacking them on boys!

Gotta be lovin that Acria kid... wooo!

OK, this is the inning he usually begins to unravel - c'mon, Pelf, hold it together!

whose durnk write know!?!?!?!?!

That has to be an error, right?

 

 

 

 

Right???

Right???

 

what?

Well, Pelfrey's strategy of allowing long fly balls finally fell apart.

 

Bert says "That's a ball that probably should have been caught." You mean because it hit the pocket of Arcia's glove? Yeah, probably. That ball hit the glove with a clank like we heard off the Green Monster.

OK, this is the inning he usually begins to unravel - c'mon, Pelf, hold it together!

 

Yeah. If the bullpen is short one guy (Perk) already, and in the middle of a long sequence of games with no day off, it sure would be nice to have a starter get through the seventh.

 

Maybe Correia followed by Pelf isn't ideal.

I've got a date with my wife tonight. It should last approximately two weeks, so my presence here on this site will be sparse-to-none during that time.

 

At the very least change your avatar to one of the better ones for us.

whose durnk write know!?!?!?!?!

 

I, my good fellow, had a bit of brandy after my dinner, but I am hardly in my cups.

95 pitches!!! don't hurt us, JJ!!!!!!

That has to be an error, right?

 

 

 

 

Right???

 

This is baseball. Everything's a hit.

No error posted on Arcia. Seems like it should have been one.

 

Willingham doubled the runner off on that line drive, but the ump called him safe. Very, very close play.

what?

 

The ball that clanked off Arcia's glove.

Okay, so I appreciate moving the runner from 2nd to 3rd when the score is close--like in the 2nd and 3rd inning, but I'm not so sure about that approach in the 6th, when down by 6 runs. My sense is that Dickbert are playing old tapes that no longer fit the current stategy. Baltimore seems more focused on hitting doubles than hitting to the right side of the infield. Thoughts?

Time for a new pitcher?
