GDT- 8/8/18- Night of the FOLTY

[thewupk]

Acuna doesn't inspire confidence in CF

 

[TheBravos]

I guess that could have been way worse.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

watch the offense go out and get out in 9 pitches not giving Folty any rest.

 

[Braves1976]

35 pitches but defense cost him, could've been worse

 

[Hulavol]

If I were Snit, I’d switch Charlie and Camargo right damn now.

 

[USMA76]

whew

I bet Folty is gassed

I'm gassed watching it.

 

[Enscheff]

Folty’s first inning struggles are so annoying. Lucky to only give up one, though

Wait...

Are we seriously blaming that inning on Folty?

 

[UNCBlue012]

Wait...

Are we seriously blaming that inning on Folty?

no. That was more on defense than anything. He just tends to have the most struggles in the first. Or it seems, at least.

 

[Enscheff]

Everyone realizes that inning should have ended after the Harper K, right?

How was that Folty's struggles... Jesus.. he should have been out of that inning long ago and with no runs scored...

 

[Hudson2]

We need to have a long inning to give Folty a breather.

 

[CyYoung31]

Wait...

Are we seriously blaming that inning on Folty?

Seriously. He was the reason they only got 1 run.

 

[Enscheff]

Let's recap the inning...

Single to Eaton on a slider off the plate away, Markakis gave Eaton 2b
Grounder to Camargo that should have been a double play, instead error made is 1st and 3rd
Jam job single to Rendon
Harper K
Soto tap back to mound, runner to 2b
Pitched around MAdams to load the bases
Battled Murphy and got FB to CF

I'm not sure how that qualifies as Folty struggling in the 1st. He should have out of the inning with about 15 pitches.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

If DuFail goes quickly... I tell Jo-gun to fake an injury on his first swing to give Folty a breather..

 

[sturg33]

Wait...

Are we seriously blaming that inning on Folty?

I don't think so but I'm gonna go ahead and guess this will be your narrative for the night

 

[Braves1976]

another bad ab by Duvall, slow start for him

 

[CyYoung31]

Man, Sciambi is disgustingly obese now.

 

[USMA76]

another bad ab by Duvall, slow start for him

One for ten in his first at bats as a Brave. Small sample size I know but we may as well have Ender in the line up against lefties if Duvall can't pick it up.

 

[WaitingFor2017]

If I'm Washington, I just intentionally walk Charlie and pitch to Folty. I'm sure there are worse hitting pitchers out there, but Folty has been brutal outside his double vs. Scherzer.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Flow needed that..
