Baker up 0-2 on the night

Head Coach comes out and gets Jackson who had 4 walks after on walking 6 previously on the year and 91 pitches. He can only win it he can't lose is as Barrera is his responsibility at first

Mathis would be dangerous if he could identify the curve ball.

 

[joeywa]

There we go.

Great job by Loncar in center to for Nicholson to hold Tres. The Zeke and Zonk show do a great job of explaining it.
