Hitting with RISP is by and large, random. Sometimes it goes well and sometimes it doesn't. I think last evening was pretty funny, we were hitting rockets all over the place, then SOFT hits and an error gave the lead later.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
This game is going as I expected. We're going to get swept this series.
ALBIES
Atta boy, Ozzie
Even if you have velocity, you absolutely cannot pitch Albies down.
"Kelly pitches to Albies with a down pitch".
Well, it can be down, but it can't be a fastball/changeup or he's going to get it.

LUCKY RED SOX. SWANSON JUST MISSED OMG
Joe pitched both Albies and Swanson atrociously. He’s lucky Swanson’s homer just missed.
Another rocket out.
Swanson looks like a promising hitter of late

Why do they feel the need to justify Ryan Flaherty's roster spot each and every week?
Tucker didn't exactly bust it down the line there.

Lol, the Sox pitchers are getting dugout to dugout!
Kelly getting completely fake strike calls. Definitely bias all day with strike calls.
Acuna grounds out. Kelly got REALLY lucky. Crazy bad pitching there.
Once again, the broadcast booth just doesn't get it when it comes to even the simpler analytics.
This is why the casual viewers in Braves country will be lagging far behind once all of baseball is completely embedded in analytics.

What a damn throw and stretch after the near-error.
What is up with all the bobbles lately.
