Don't blame him, but Schwarber wasn't anywhere close to those balls that he swung at. Get Baez here...

He's getting to 3-1 and 3-2 too much but keeps executing the necessary pitches. I don't believe things will go as good if that continues. 1-0 and 2-1 yes....but deeper is playing too much with fire.

Kluber 6 inn
Miller 1
Shaw 1
Allen 1

Lester mad after 1st pitch of inning, looked like a strike. Perez looks to be swinging right through those fastballs

He won't give in with runners on. If he only goes 6...he only goes 6 but he's not going to groove pitches for the sake of throwing strikes.

He attacks with the bases empty but he's not worried about pitching with 2 and 3 balls with runners on.

Never said he should. The good pitchers never give in. I don't expect him to give in but I feel 3-1 and 3-2 counts are going to get him sooner than later if he continues.

Of course he gets a hit. My fault on the jinx.

The control and tailing action of that fastball is superb to say the least.

He looks incredible...and now must continue as Bryant comes up

2 seamer is off the charts today. He's tough tonight considering his curveball has led to both hits and that's usually his bread and butter.

Van Over isn't giving that same side of plate because he doesn't give the outside pitch as much.
