He is overthrowing....he has been prone to this since joining the team - infuriating.

I never notice he literally doesn’t look at the plate when he starting home

They are helping him out by swinging at balls thankfully

Kimbrel is just tough to hit. You have to get a couple of walks in a inning or a homerun to score off of him.
This is why he's a really good pitcher. The walks are a problem though.

Kimbrel is wildly effective. He has no idea of where his pitches are going most of the time and neither does the hitter.

come on boyz....we have nothing to kimbrel but Kimbrel himself. I see your FDR paraphrase and raise you a TR paraphrase... Do not walk them softly nor let them swing a big stick. I'll call the raise and bump it again. Today is a date which will live in infamy.

I would’ve preferred 3 strikeouts on 9 pitches from Kimbrel, but a win’s a win.

Sandy Leon with his best game of the year.
Cora having a great night with smart decisions. What a team.

Maybe Kimbrel just has to be used a lot more to keep him sharp?

I think about 5 of the pitches Craig threw that inning were in the zone.
Luckily Philly had no interest in being patient.

Hard to conceive of this - we have 86 wins. No team in the NL has more than 68 wins. We just find ways to win when it is close - or crush them with big bats. This is indescribable fun!

Cora managed his best game of the year. Going to Hembree with the bottom of the order in the 8th. Pinch hitting with Holt.

I see your FDR paraphrase and raise you a TR paraphrase... Do not walk them softly nor let them swing a big stick. I'll call the raise and bump it again. Today is a date which will live in infamy. I go all in with Winston. We we will fight them on the mounds. We will fight them in the batters box. We will fight them on the base paths. We will fight them on the infields. We will never give up. We shall never surrender!
