Not a good play by dernedde, all his momentum was carried him towards right field. No way a backhand flip is going to work, a reverse pivot throw to first was his only shot

I was worried about this kind of thing. It’s a different kind of baseball down there. It takes a different mentality to play that kind of game.

Dernedde another non-error blown defensive play on the 2nd hitter this inning opens the floodgates. Kasper also with a misplay to start the inning. Those 2 outs turn into their first 2 runs.
Games like this would be best to start our best defensive team without giving up offense - Guerra is way better at 3rd than LF, move Kane to SS, Turley in RF. Kasper in LF or DH.

I think even though there wasn't a lot of pitchers available, it was a mistake to let lattery go so long. Not just this game but others as well. Things would be going the wrong direction and they try to squeze a little more out of the current pitcher. Better hope the Beavers can score 20 runs. That may not even be enough

Do you believe this crap. Here we go. What happened to the Pitching in Az? Very similar to last years series at Arizona. Control issues abounded in that series from some of our most consistent pitcher going in. They had been throwing in cooler, much heavier, damp to fully wet conditions and then had to adjust to dry, hot, light air. How many times have our catchers had to stand up and stretch to catch pitches this weekend so far. Would seem to me wildly different extreme in temps, humidity, and air thickness have an impact on grip, release point, and break.

Another blown chance. Taking K's with runners on is killing us.

Great work by Mejia, holding the Devils down. Time for our hitters to step up
