Bottom 3rd
Schwarber HBP, Harper K, Bohm flyout, Stott grounds out, 1-1 heading to the 4th.
Sanchez 2 ks and a fly out in the top of the 4th, more Cristopher-like than some of the other innings.
Bottom 4th
Garcia lines a leadoff single up the middle, Marsh 4-6-3 DP, JT walk, Crawford doubles over the LFer and off the wall, 2nd and 3rd, 2 outs.
Turner ends the threat with a popup to shallow left on the first pitch. Boos.
Turner, Harper, and Bohm all killing us at the top of the lineup. We really need a right-handed bat to step up in a big way.
Marlins about to go 5-1 as they navigate the gauntlet of Rockies and White Sox at home...
Sanchez gets 2 fly outs, then his 4th walk. Only once did he walk 4 last year, they say, happened in Toronto. Career high is 5, once late in 2024, up in Queens. Then a ground single to right, 2 on, 2 out.
Sanchez gets his 6th K as Wiemer is caught looking. Wiemer's average is down to .600 after going 1-2 so far today.
Gets Wiemer with a K to close the inning. 93 pitches might be it for Sanchez but he worked through 5 without his best command.
Bottom 5th. Schwarber guesses something else, takes a straight fastball down the middle for a K.
Constantly being reminded of the bot's humanity
Harper flies out, Bohm grounds out, first 1-2-3 inning for the Nats today.
Sanchez out for the top of the 6th, at least to start. Gets CJ Abrams on a strikeout, and then is pulled from the game. No decision for him today.
Abrams was their key lefty in the bottom of the lineup. Bowlan coming in now.
You shamed the bot into action. There's a game thread now, starting with that last strikeout.
Temporarily closed, to avoid confusion, since the bot hath awaken!
