Don't look now but Dunn just made Vet throw another fastball

it's as laughable as dunn's pitch selection that at-bat

The color guy (I'm drawing a blank on his name) was dumbfounded that they kept throwing inside.

He kept repeating that the kid couldn't extend due to a shoulder injury like CPM and Dunn could hear him.

Full count you throw your best pitch. His best pitch is a fastball. Sometimes the hitter wins good at bats.

Tip your hat and move on.

while i tend to agree with this........it was a full count for over 5-6 pitches. all fastballs. Albert had em timed up but was just fouling them off.

Could he throw any other pitch for a strike?

It was to his power side and was a fastball for the fifth time in a row, the dude was gonna catch up to it eventually and boy did he ever. Horrible called pitch sequence by Dunn.

V couldn’t throw much for a strike...it was the wrong decision, clearly. His fastball was meat...belt high and inside. He should have been pulled for Fontenot during that at bat, especially after all of the foul balls.

Then, they kept him in and the next kid is 3 feet from going yard.

I think the blame goes to the pitch calling for sure. You know they are a patient team that will take strikes and we pitch around everyone. We have so many pitchers that go into long counts and it’s because of the pitch calling.
