On The Hill : held Pirates to 3 hits
Matt Moore ( FB 92 -95 ) was very good once again. He went four innings ... 1 R, 1 H, 0 BB and 3 K’s. He only needed 45 pitches, of which 32 were strikes. Moore retired the last 11 batters he faced in order. If it were up to me he’s won the 4th slot in the starting rotation 🤓.
David Hale ( FB 91-93 ) tossed a perfect fifth inning with two strikeouts.
Brandon Kintzler ( FB 91-93 ) was tagged for a single and a walk in a scoreless sixth inning, he struck out one batter and also coaxed a double play ground ball.
Connor Brogdon ( FB 94-96 ) struck out one batter and was 1-2 on his second hitter when he was removed due to an injury in the seventh inning. . Looked like something with his back.
Jakob Hernandez ( FB 89-90 - cutter ) replaced Brogdon and had difficulty throwing strikes and walked the bases loaded, he was then tagged for a grand slam home run. Jakob faced four batters and didn’t record an out.
Tyler Carr ( FB 91-92 ) replaced Hernandez and restored order, he struck out two of the three batters he faced to end the inning. Used a change up as his out pitch. Tyler walked one batter.
Sam Coonrad ( FB 96-98 ) tossed a scoreless eighth inning. He allowed just a walk.
Jo Jo Romero ( FB 94-97 ) finished it with one strikeout, he yielded one hit and one walk.
