That was a nice pitch...

Zimmer and Miller racing to see which one can get to 50% Ks first.

I swear Owen Miller misses more pitches he should square up then Carter has pills

 

[xmasbuck]

well, Quantrill won't be getting a start soon

Looks fooled on almost every pitch. Still holding on that it is a confidence/nerve thing.

Wrong time to hit a batter

I have no faith in Quantril as a starter. He is all over the place mechanically

 

[Criznit]

Quantrill always seems to be starting a jam or ending up in one... I would assume he has had a couple clean innings this season, but there always seems to be a wrinkle..

I really do appreciate how quickly he works though... Maybe he should consider some rhythm disruption next time out...

St. Louis is a baseball town.. Those fans are into it.

I'm lost on the "Carter has pills" reference.

Maybe need to be a little older.

What does the saying more than Carter has pills mean?
old-fashioned A huge number of something; an amount of something that is greater than one can count. A reference to a popular patent medicine created in 1868 called "Carter's Little Liver Pills" (renamed "Carter's Little Pills" in 1959). I swear, that boy's got more excuses than Carter has liver pills!

was gonna comment on that - my mother, god rest her soul, used that expression all the time --- it's an age thing

Quantril gets out of his little jam. But boy it is painful to watch him pitch
