Game #40-Atlanta Braves @ Arizona Diamondbacks. 5/11/19

[thirty-two]

Swihart strikes out with the bases loaded. He’s really been struggling at the plate.

 

[BC867]

Fly ball with the bases loaded not far enough for a sac fly.
Then, bases left loaded.

 

[thirty-two]

Bases loaded no outs and we got zip. OUCH

 

[Dback Jon]

No Blake Swihart

 

[Dback Jon]

There is a reason Boston dumped him

There is a reason Boston dumped him

I'm trying to figure out the reason Torey keeps playing him.

 

[Ronin]

Merrill Kelly has settled down.

 

[1Sun]

Kelly had a very nice game after a shaky start. Too bad the offense has been AWOL since the Archie meltdown last Sunday.

 

[Ronin]

Choo choo
Peralta with a double

 

[Ronin]

Got to score here.

Was just telling my friend same thing

I am sitting behind Dbacks Dugout. You can probably hear me heckling him

 

[Dback Jon]

And once again TL leaves a starter in too long

 

[Ronin]

Ok time to get Kelly.
Yeesh

 

[1Sun]

And once again TL leaves a starter in too long

He actually brought Kelly back out for the 7th?!?!? WTF was he thinking???

 

[Ronin]

AJ!

 

[Dback Jon]

Jones!

 

[1Sun]

Hopefully that snaps Jones out of his major funk.

Meanwhile, I am beyond impressed with Merrill Kelly. He was clearly running on fumes in the 6th, Torey inexplicably sends him out for the 7th, he gets hammered immediately, but then he somehow gets through the rest of the inning without further damage.

 

[Dback Jon]

So much for not bringing Archie in against the heart of the order

 

[Ronin]

Archie gonna Archie

 

[1Sun]

Torey's got some explaining to do. One odd decision after another tonight.

 

[Ronin]

Oh boy

 

[thirty-two]

Oh Archie... cmon man

 

[Ronin]

Boooooooooooo

 

[az240zz]

Archie should be sent down. He has been pretty bad for over a year.
