Agreed. Wasn't Garret Jones pretty decent?

Nice catch by Reynolds! Contreras was certainly excited

Contreras looks to me like he's afraid to pitch to contact, and tries nibbling way too much. Then he falls behind and starts throwing get me over strikes in hitters counts

Gomes is just flat out wearing out the pitchers tonight

I think Jones was adequate at best. It didn't help that he always played both 1B and OF instead of concentrating on 1B.

Contreras is about to destroy all the good vibes we had going

this is the point of the game where a lot of metrics people say you should bring in your closer.

Contreras has to get this guy

Pitch violation, ball four, run scores, 5-2, bases still loaded and one out.

Contreras has just fallen apart
