When I talked with Hensley Meulens, he said the name more with a Y sound on the Js. Kinda like Yair Yurryens. There’s a little bit of a J sound to it, but not a straight up J.

I would have been more comfortable not calling a HnR with a runner on third there.

Agree. Hard to hit this guy with one strike on you, much less two

Exactly. A 2-1 count is much different than 1-2.

just saying… I’m not really into having Downs batting in that situation. OTOH, it’s not like we have another significantly better option. I’d think that Frandsen might have the experience to handle the situation a bit better, but I’m not one of the people who think that Frandsen would be a significant upgrade.

Yeah, but how do you defend taking the bat out of your #8 hitter’s hands? Both of them would have to have swung at a BAD pitch to put themselves in a 1-2 hole. That has nothing to do with the hitter and is all on Bochy. Then what do you do? I mean, few hitters are going to do well in a two-strike pitcher against one of the best pitchers in the league.

I like that the first McCovey highlight was of a play where he tried to throw a guy out at third and the guy was safe.

Nice going, guys.
