Tied 3-3 top of the 6th, no one on, two outs, vandy up, the count is 0-2. Pitcher throws a fastball strike, near top of wall, right fielder just misses catch for a triple.
I think, whew, almost a home run.
I also think, "why pitch a perfect strike on an 0-2 count?". Okay, sometimes it works cause the batter doesn't expect it. We survived. Get the next guy out, no worries.
Again, the count is 0-2. AGAIN, a perfect pitch up the middle! This time its a two run Homer off the top the scoreboard.
What. The. fizzle! Was our pitcher thinking? "They REALLY won't expect it this time?
Are you fizzleING KIDDING ME!!!
Just next level stupid. Middle of strike zone in the sweet spot on 0-2 count with two outs in a tie game.
I even thought, this time just throw one low and outside. Obviously my dues to psychic network not paid up.
If we lose this, and odds are we do, its on this moron pitcher, or the catcher who called it.
Grrrrr.
