[Cornfed Pig]

First pitch is a strike, count now even, and Barna slashes one to right-center.

[Cornfed Pig]

Again Murphy is ahead 0-2, he might be too accurate

[Cornfed Pig]

[SPAL]

Arledge walked in his first at bat and came around to score....

[Cornfed Pig]

Sorry cornfed....I was trying to provide some color for you and got ahead of you.

No worries!  Sometimes I don't like using the stats site since it's ahead of my video feed and I know about the homers before i see them

[Cornfed Pig]

Arledge grounds out to short for out #1

[SPAL]

Spanberger is 1/1 today with a home run....Moved his batting average up to .209.

[Cornfed Pig]

Spano runs the count full, 3-2

Spano down on strikes this time

2 down for Bonfield

[Cornfed Pig]

Ball 1, and Murphy goes just over 40 pitches for the day, the vast majority strikes

[Cornfed Pig]

Sorry, this is Cormier batting, and he singles, two men on now for Vives

[SPAL]

I'm killing your vibe cornfed. I'm retiring to the showers.
