Official Game Thread - 3/29 - Bucs @ Marlins

[Surgnbuck]

Back to back innings with a run scoring with 2 outs. Those kinds of things even out some of the bad baserunning, and stranding leadoff doubles

[Surgnbuck]

Josh Fleming coming on

[Doc]

Fleming in to pitch the 7th, strikes out the first batter.

[Doc]

Great googily moogily, the Bucs turn their 4th double play to end the 7th. Is this what's to come in '24? Still 6-1.

[Doc]

Joe and Reynolds with singles, followed by a Hayes sac fly 7-1 Bucs in the 8th. Pile it on, boys.

[Doc]

Fleming with a two innings of nearly perfect pitching. To the 9th we go, 7-1 Bucs.

[Surgnbuck]

Great to see Hayes doing what needs to be done, just get the ball in play, take what the pitcher gives you, get that guy in from third.

Wonder if Fleming goes the 9th?

[Doc]

Fleming stays in to finish it up.

[Surgnbuck]

Cruz strikes out on a pitch clock violation. Here's my problem with this:

He speaks limited English, and it was readily apparent he was trying to get some clarification on the previous pitch and where it was in the strike zone. I think that's what led to him not getting ready in time. I'd love to know if that is what occured.

[Surgnbuck]

Cruz still has his head on that AB, that was a poor fielding display, I don't care how hard it was hit
