They’re ambushing Spencer.
It’s my fault guys. I bet us this game. We never win when I do that. Just thought strider would stride.
Matt Olson reminds me of a Cactus planted in the desert
Well that’s game fellas on to the next
Somebody wake Krantiz up.
Strider lost his focus but it was obviously due to an ump who is blatantly calling a different zone for the home pitcher
Ozzie and Olson’s defense has NOT helped this game. Can’t stop grounders or throws. It’s becoming a problem. Fucking fuck.
that 2 on nobody out in the 2nd hurting extra rn. i wish they would stop squandering gifted innings because we can’t f around and find out with offense like the Rangers have.
This team really does look for the first chance to fall apart at the seams
Matt Olson’s defense was way oversold
Strider’s fastball is slower than normal
Been watching Atl United, what happened to Strider? Bad luck?
Fuck y’all mad as hell
Kranitz: I hate The Strokes and I’m going to force feed you steak.
This ump sucks. Every close call he gives it to Rangers.
Is he tipping they are all over it
Strider not having a great night locating + getting squeezed = fastballs down middle against a good ballclub
Olsons defense was false advertisement
Is it just me or is blue squeezing the hell out of strider?
Spencer not fooling anyone right now. Not ideal.
So this whole “get an early lead and then slowly watch it evaporate”. Thing we’ve been doing this past few series is pretty annoying.
Rick Kranitz collecting a free paycheck
We may end up winning. Who knows? But with two of our top three starters out, losing again with Strider on the mound is a problem. These are games we can’t afford to blow.
NICE
Don’t worry about a thing guys, our offense is gonna come back out and go 1-2-3, can’t keep them down!
I miss when we never lost on the road
Nice
Not getting a lot of swings and misses tonight
69
Finally a fucking K
I heard a “69”!
soooooo ready for robo umps
I’m not sure baseball is for some of you, how do you stay this mad for 8 months
Bally killing me!
His location has been off all year really. Amazing hee been as effective as he has.
Adversity is okay. Get out of this tied Spencer!
HOW MANY LEFTIES DO THE RANGERS HAVE?
Strider has been battling all night since the first inning.
And the offense has given him virtually no rest time.
We just gotta get another crack at Evoldi, after that we can handle their bullpen
Kranitz: I told you I didn’t want pineapple on my pizza!.
his velocity looks way down
Strider’s kryptonite is when batters work the count and foul off a lot of pitches, he doesn’t really have the stamina of Fried to stay deep into the game after long innings
MONEY
This has been a very humbling and brutal road trip
What a throw baby
Game over
GOT HIM!
We really gonna roll out Jesse here 🤦
