Luhnow must have discovered hit batters are the new market inefficiency. All the hit batters will be ours.

2 HBPs on 0-2 counts to bring tying run to the plate

This fricking bullpen. Just doesn’t have the mental fortitude to succeed. None of them. Not one but two hit batters with 0-2 counts. That’s an inability to focus plain and simple.

That was the called pitch by McCann

With 0-2 counts, Giles is famous for throwing in the strike zone, and has rightfully taken heat for it.

That pitch was a calculated risk, probably b/c Lowrie wasn't the tying run

Great pitch by Giles to end the game.

He had an 0-2 count and went for it.

98 mph fastball right down the heart of the plate. Batter was looking for a ball in the dirt or something high and outside.
