    In fairness to Kenley a closer coming into a game while the game is tied doesn't usually bode well. The BIG problem was that the pitch was only 93 mph. I was at the game thankfully and didn't leave smartly either and Belli's bomb was out of the park in a fucking hurry. Joe looked real good, velocity touching 100 averaging 98 and Pedro has been hot lately. Just saw a tweet that said that this team has the 2nd best 8th inning ERA. ERA not a true measure nowadays but interesting nonetheless.

    Funner way to resolve it rather than throwing fastballs at each other

    Although I wouldn’t doubt the DBacks throw at Cody next time cause they’re losers

    I’m afraid about Kenley because both his velocity and location are suspect. There are days his cutter doesn’t cut and is moving 93. That means a flat pitch with no movement right in the power zone. That pitch is tailor made for a HR.

    Then his walk situation. In key times during some games he walks batters and it looks like he has no idea where the strike zone is. He then has no choice but to throw a fastball strike right down the middle.

    Like to know where the Dodgers stand in 9th inning ERA, and how many HRs we’ve given up.

    The pitch that hit last night (at the top or slightly above the top of the strike zone) is a pitch that no one handled in the past. Last night, with no movement, it ended up in the bleachers.

    He has little margin for error these days.
