Edwin Rios went yard. #Post#: 468650-------------------------------------------------- Re: Today’s Game 2023 By: davep Date: March 3, 2023, 10:41 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Spring training performance can be very misleading, but Assad not only looks good, but looks like a substantially different pitcher. The same goes for a finally healthy Madrigal. Both may end up starting out at Iowa, but I think that won't be for long. #Post#: 468651-------------------------------------------------- Re: Today’s Game 2023 By: craig Date: March 3, 2023, 10:52 pm --------------------------------------------------------- I skimmed through the last several innings pitched. Estrada, Sanders, Burdi. Yykstra dykstra, those guys really have both velocity and nastry offspeed stuff. Burdi's sweeper had huge sweep. Sanders had some big offspeed movement. Had some pitches that missed badly. Burdi's only pitched ~20 pro innings over the past five seasons, so perhaps it's possible that after a few months at Iowa, perhaps he'll get a little more comfortable and perhaps the control will improve some? #Post#: 468652-------------------------------------------------- Re: Today’s Game 2023 By: CurtOne Date: March 3, 2023, 10:54 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Yyksta dykstra? I thought I was the only one who said that. #Post#: 468653-------------------------------------------------- Re: Today’s Game 2023 By: Reb Date: March 3, 2023, 11:00 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Game time: 2:14 #Post#: 468654-------------------------------------------------- Re: Today’s Game 2023 By: Tuffy Date: March 4, 2023, 1:10 am --------------------------------------------------------- Wow; the Cubs pitcher a no-hitter! I watched about an inning and a half; saw Assas pitch, saw Mervis bat, saw Rios hit a homer. Then went shopping despite being fully aware that the Padres had not yet had a hit. Did the team celebrate at all after the ninth inning? Were the announcers excited? Or was it just, "this is Spring Training and nothing counts"? (Back around 1988 or so I was there when the Phillies took a no-hitter into the ninth against the Cardinals in Spring Training. Todd Frohwirth came in to get the last three outs and Rod Booker ruined *everyone's* day by hitting a single. It was the closest I had ever come to seeing a no-hitter.) #Post#: 468655-------------------------------------------------- Re: Today’s Game 2023 By: Tuffy Date: March 4, 2023, 1:15 am --------------------------------------------------------- Found the game-ending double play: (HTM) https://streamable.com/jn0ape ***************************************************** (DIR) Next Page
