Must be nice to have an offense that punishes mistake pitches.

Just not going to happen today at the plate for the Rangers. Phillies just had two nice plays for outs in the 7th, still scoreless for the good guys.

Phillies lost their challenge. That was pretty close, but a ball.

That is such a fast process, I think I am good with it. Just need to use judgment on when to use your challenges.

The bats ARE the same as last year, save Semien/Nimmo.

TBD. I am watching while working, with the sound down pretty low. So not seeing everything, but overall our approach at the plate looks better (as we heard throughout Spring Training). But of course we were facing a stud pitcher, so lets give it some time.

Of course Joc still looks like.... Joc. In his one plate appearance he saw two pitches. First one he was pretty late on a fastball. Second pitch was a lazy popup to shallow RF. Pretty non-competitive AB. He should get another AB in the 9th, maybe he can put together a better AB then.

Baumler's curveball is pretty snappy.
God loves you so much He'll meet you where you are. He also loves you too much to allow to stay where you are.

Higgy hits for Joc and delivers a line drive up the middle.

What dumb play by the second baseman.

why in the world did Stott (The 2nd baseman) not tag the lead runner there?

He tagged him (with an empty glove) and got the out at first. Good thing Higgy didn't lose his helmet.

Why replace Smith with Duran there??

Definitely odd, unless they just want to get Zeke into the game. That is all of the position players.

But we gave up a left on right matchup for a right on right.

Not good not bad. Faced an elite pitcher. Move on.

I don't think Duran threw a single pitch in the zone. The called strike to Carter was not a strike and should have been challenged.

Good fight until the end, just came up short today

I don't think challenging a borderline pitch on strike one is an effective use of a challenge even in that situation.

Just tip your hat and move on.

Is there any limitations on deGrom this season or is he a full go?

Full go. He was pretty much a full go last season from what I saw, they let him pitch 173 innings - why would he not be this season?

Wasn't sure if anything happened during the offseason or spring training. Going to need his arm this year!
