2-0 count to Hedgie.. who shows off his former ballet classes...

Hedgie is now swinging at every thing.. four straight foul balls.. 2-2 count.

but strikes out.. swinging through a backup slider... one down for Myles straw..

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Why didn’t Brennan go to third?!

Fist to third! First to third! That’s how we play!

Myles drives one to the warning track in right.. for the second out..

 

[KilgoreTrout]

When is Straw going to hit his first dinger?! He’s running out of games!

 

[Criznit]

Steven Kwan for president!!

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Why didn’t Brennan tag up?!

 

[TxBuckeye]

Nice response by the Clippers in this inning

Great baserunning.. Kwan spanks a single to LF.. Brennan scores.. Arias adventurously goes to 3B with Kwan following him to 2B.. Poor fundamental defense by the Rays there.. 4-3 rays still lead..

Rosario gives Wander Franco a two bounce room service ground ball that he throws over for the third out.. two runs in.. two left.. going to the fifth inning.. 4-3 Rays lead..

 

[CATS44]

Put the ball in play and run like hell.

Put pressure on the defense every play.

Thats the way.

terrible AB for Naylor.. waves at ball four... a pitch almost 5 feet off the plate...

Naylor didn’t wanna walk

 

[Martyinnewyork]

Oof

I just can't see him as a full time 1B/DH with that kind of bat vs. lefties. But thankfully he will be easy to platoon because the splits are so large and he's actually very good against RHP.

Brennan's poor contact against this lefty looked familiar.. We'll see as time goes by if this is rare or a pattern..
