GDT: Atlanta Braves @ NY Mets, July 25th 2013 - Wood Rises Up To the Occasion

[yeezus]

Pitch-counts seem like they're going to be a problem for Wood.

Prob for the rest of his career.

Prob for the rest of his career.

And at least this season. That's one of my larger worries regarding the loss of Hudson: it's hard to be confident that Wood and Beachy will be able to dependably pitch deep into games.

BS hits...gotta love em

How did that single to shallow left fall? GameCast makes it appear as though Simmons should have easily caught it.

he was shaded up the middle for the DP and it was just far enough away from him

Solid comeback from Wood. Did what he needed to do. I would love to keep this kid.

We all know that thethe is enamored with Wood

Nats actually ahead in a game (2-0) They must feel awesome.

Shocking result to end Simmons' PA.

"Andrelton Simmons pops out to second baseman Daniel Murphy. One out."

 

[stpeteirish]

Simmons popped up the first pitch! Haven't seen that before!

 

[thethe]

Still waiting on Upton to show something here.

 

[datdude12]

2 more bs hits...awesome

 

[thethe]

Wow, they are really smoking the ball now. Ugh...

 

[Dunit24]

Simmons has 11 jacks but his approach has been terrible all season long. Hes not an all or nothing hitter. I dont know if the coaches have said something and its a habit he cant break or if the coaches are just letting him figure it out for himself.

 

[Tapate50]

Can't count those dying quail!

Yep. The bullpen is going to take a huge hit.

 

[zitothebrave]

I'm not watching the game (getting ready for work) but as I count it the Mets have 2 soft fly ball singles, an infield single, and I forget the other hit, but IIRC it was a grounder, and I believe only one linedrive today, that was an out. Lol

 

[Dalyn]

Gattis...

 

[jsebe10]

Jesus...
