Need the pitching to have my back.

They’d rather face Duran here? That’s… a choice Duran really doesn't hit lefties all that well (<660 OPS). Sound decision that paid off.

Just out of curiosity, why wouldn't the visiting team intentionally walk the first batter in extras? Create force at 3rd and setup double plays.

Ok, why not load the bases now.

I’d walk the bases loaded here and take my chances with the fat GB king Bell

In hindsight it would’ve been nice to have Pivetta pitch the 8th

That was all kinds of ballsy. We get chaos on 2nd base! Come on boys!

Funny how at least three of us nearly simultaneously posted about Kelly's junk. I think we are in agreement.

Martin and Weissert (coming off pitching yesterday) are presumably available in the pen, as are Bailey Horn and Chase Anderson.

Ok, why not load the bases now. Some pitchers (I'd expect most) feel the additional pressure of pitching with a lack of margin for error. As demonstrated by our man just now, the freedom to throw balls that look like strikes, might be more advantageous than a potential G DP (especially if the pitcher is not a big GB guy). Also, it might just be Cora getting cute.
