Fun start to the Wilson era.

Saw two things in the top of the 10th…

1) Walked Lamont Wade with a base open. Servais never does that.

2) Had a mound visit in front of the Conforto AB where they clearly talked strategy. They went high FB the whole AB. Servais never had visits like that.
Dan did a fantastic job in his debut. Down 5-1 and his team fought the rest of the way. We don't see that with Scott. Great decisions Dan. Keep it going!

Rivas has been so fucking good for us. Great 2 strike hitter. 1-0 with Dan. Fun fight comeback win. 4 1/2 33 gms left. Let's make it fun guys.

A game like this has to create a huge run. Team showed some huge late life energy. Wonder what woke them up? Rivas again guy just hits. Jp can really take his time. Rivas deserves to keep playing.

Snider has to be mvp. Just lethal showing right now!
The team leader is Cal! He called out no energy weeks ago. That is an indictment against Scott in the club house. = Clubhouse lost. A few weeks of evidence, and Scott is gone!

Cal is the leader!

Ms need to thank Bob Melvin for the win, leaving in his guy for 6 straight hits was a laugher!

Not a veteran call.

Yes Cal is the leader but he did not do anything to help out with this win. He has been struggling. Yes he is a leader for sure but his bat has gotta get going again. Would be huge. Rivas is riding a high right now gets 2 strikes and does not get flustered. Hate seeing Jp returning soon. He has been horrid all year. Take his sweet time.

No one really powered the ball against Rogers....was just a lot of little jam shots that were placed right. No way Melvin could forsee that....and a lot of 1st or 2nd pitch hitting....hard to get a guy up and warm that quickly

Letting Taylor get out of his own jam was absolutely pivotal to tonight's win. Go Dan!
