    Man, I thought Garcia got enough for at least a hit off the wall there. Nice play by Renfroe too.

    Another break this inning, a little bobble costs them an out at the plate.

    That said, I don't like our approach so far against soft-tossing Weaver.

    Our approach is basically swing at his garbage pitches.

    Maybe we'll figure it out after the fifth.

    Hopefully second time through will be different.

    Garcia ain't fooling them, but a lot of shots on a line at people.

    Ender is smart, changed his approach there and worked. He even moved up in the box.

    Swanson is really struggling.

    Freeman likes the soft-tossing Weaver, that Ender hit ended up being huge as did no DP. Two run homer!

    I wonder if Freeman's HR is a HR at the Ted, where baseballs hit to RF went to die.

    93 on the gun there for Garcia. That's positive.

    I don't think so... the RC ally at STP is very small

    This ballpark is certainly more offense friendly for Freeman, Inciarte, etc.
