Did yall think Gray was getting tired or losing something or do you think it was just a matter of adjusting or taking advantage of a couple of mistakes?

I think it was adjustment. The one to Moore in particular was a pretty good pitch, a slider down around the knees. It was some good hitting by him to connect with that pitch in his first at bat against Gray.

I think it was more of the players feeling out Gray.

As other's said, JJ got lucky on Gray's bad pitch and Moore called "fourrrrrr" and made good contact with an extremely low and in pitch.

In a postgame interview, Moore stated that he was studying Gray's tendencies all game. Did that give him an advantage? Maybe so, but he got lucky with the quality of contact he made on that low pitch.

He was at 110 pitches entering the 8th and they had people in the bullpen to start the inning. Some of it was adjustments, but he wasn't as sharp either and their staff knew he was reaching the end.
