Official Game Thread - 8/21 - Bucs @ Rangers

[Doc]

Nicolas is a saint. He could hardly have been more efficient in the 7th.

[Surgnbuck]

Nicolas is like Chuck Norris: He can cut through a hot knife with butter. And that's exactly what he did to the Rangers.

[Surgnbuck]

Bart with a leadoff single.

Can maybe we get him around? Bae to PR, Rowdy to PH for Joe. That makes Bae the DH now

[Surgnbuck]

Bae better be running

[Surgnbuck]

Bae, you HAVE to steal the dang base!!!!!!!

[Surgnbuck]

Tellez strikes out looking, he was the perfect PH for Joe.

[Surgnbuck]

Bae is useless if he can't steal a base here and give them two shots to drive him in

[Surgnbuck]

Tellez needs to be dumped come Sept 1st, what's the purpose of having him?

[Wildwoodcoach]

I usually post right after Possum gives us the lineup. However, when
I saw the Grandal was catching I thought better of it. It didn't take long
for him to live up to my expectations. Rangers stole two bases in the first
two innings. He then followed that up by grounding into baseloaded DP to
end the inning.
Like everyone else, I was impressed with German.

[Surgnbuck]

Bae hesitates again, doesn't go, and BDLC strikes out

HIT THE BALLLLLLLL
