    Shouldn't be throwing first pitch fastballs to Davis.

    Sipp didn't do his job.... he needs to get Davis out there.

    There's a reason he wasn't the closer for much longer than that.

    Fields is an example of a pitcher who's stuff is far more effective in the 7th or 8th innings... vs. the 9th. On the same token, his control is far better in pressure-less situations than save ones.

    Maybe he figures it out, but not all these guys with great stuff can automatically become closers.

    That was the right move from Hinch... just didn't work out.

    Anyways, got our two best hitters up in the 9th with Tucker 4th up. Got a decent shot at putting up a run here.

    He does.

    So was that a homerun given up on two pitches in a row dating back to last week?

    Villas starts it off by swinging at two pitches out of strikezone.
