A lead!

A well-executed bunt and a little more small ball for a lead

Dave in Fairfax · « **Reply #3 on:** May 13, 2023, 04:14:40 pm »

A dry ball would have been out of there

Interesting shifts in the order. I guess some of i is going against a lefty, some of it is Call having success last time vs. Lucceshi, but dropping Candy lower makes some sense.

Candelario hitting 7th. You know .... of only there were some other player that could play 3rd base and hit 7th.

And another missed opportunity.

I feel like the weather models are just crapting the bed in North America this Spring.

Can't count how many times in the past few weeks we've (here in south central Tejas) been a couple hours out from a supposed >90% chance of rain, only for a line of storms to come in like 6-8 hours later than anticipated, hit about 1-2 hours early, or just not materialize at all.

Current forecast shows rain ending around 7:30-8

Have to say it’s been generally the same here in central florida the past few weeks. Storms don’t seem to be materializing. Of course most days it’s not 100 percent chance. At least not yet.

90+ temps in the northwest. Looks like it will be a strong El Niño year
