Another typical Guardians' win - score tied 1-1 after six innings and we get to their bullpen late.
Oscar Gonzalez is incredibly strong.
I'm getting tired of Jose getting himself out in RBI situations because he chases bad pitches and won't take the walk. He did it again tonight; Rosario hit a one-out triple and Jose wanted that RBI. The first two pitches were balls and it was obvious the Rangers were going to walk Jose to set up a potential double play by Naylor to get out of the inning. I knew he wasn't going to see anything in the zone. Either he was getting walked or he was swinging at something off the plate.
Ahead 2-0 Jose didn't want a walk; he wanted the RBI. He swung at two breaking balls in the dirt then a fastball that was way outside and struck out. He's been doing that a lot lately. The team is still winning but Jose is being selfish and chasing RBI's and is getting himself out. That has to stop once the playoffs start.
Clase needs a break. They're starting to hit the ball hard off him.
