WSR Arizona Athletics Report

Hi everyone,

I'm running a little behind today so I put this thread up for the game conversation. Hopefully, someone can cover till I get settled.

Thanks!

we go down 1-2-3 in the first
two well hit balls. good sign
lets go Farris

The home plate umpire's strike zone is way far outside for the South Carolina lefty....I hope he's valient enought o carry it over for the AZ righty

Wow, the floor just dropped out of a Farris change up on a 2-0 breaking ball. However, he ended up walking the batter. 2 outs and man on first.

I always find it amazing to learn the ump's strike zone each game. Definitely looks like tonight's ump favors the outside corner.

Mejias Bream just robs SC of a single by making a great diving stab at a hard hit grounder and then throwing a strike to first to get UA out of the inning.

just noticed that Heyer writes left handed (throws righty)
FYI

So those of us who are watching this on TV away from a computer can keep up with what it is written without joining and leaving. It also leaves a permanent record.

Man, Roth brought his heater and SC brought their fan-base. Seems a lot louder on their side than last night. UA fans need to get this team jazzed so we quit going three and out.

Bottom of the second now. 0-0

Well that was quick. Farris counters with a five pitch outing to send us to the third.

Awesome.

One of those strikes was probably wind-assisted on the outside of the plate, but we will take it.

Maggi burns Roth with a double!!!

Just fair down the left field line.

Riley Moore sacrifices and that should put Gilbert into an unfamiliar role, with not having to move the runner over to second on the second bunt.

Cats draw first blood!!!

Gilbert with the sacrifice to get Maggi across.

1-0

Very well executed and it;s good thing to get inside Roth's head. He was looking dominant there for the first two. I'm sure he isn't done yet, but the more we can tire him, the better it looks for us to grab the W.
