 Garrett Cole is on the mound for the ninth inning through eight innings strong 112 pitches But he's licking his lips ready to throw some more and finish this out in Booney He's a little nervous because he's taken a bit of a gamble here But I'll do they know how to they gets on first pitch. It was an off-speed pitch now You got a man on first base and boonies ago. Oh, the pen is short Chapman's getting warmed up But he's been really bad lately need a quick out here first pitch fastball now It's 1-1 99 on the black to 90 in the almost like the same spot to same pitches Different speeds then goes 99 fastball to 85 slider. He's like, huh, okay I guess we're in a battle here and boonies jaw starts going even faster now as he gets tense 99 foul ball boon is like, oh my god. This is not good We got to get Chapman warming up for the next lefty and Garrett Cole says You're right. Okay, I'll throw a pickoff. I was pretty in the heat of the battle here But you're right. We should keep him at bay at first base the 2-2 pitch. Oh, oh misses his spot the ump is all Zoned in for the 3-2 which gets fouled back and then 99 in the zone putting playing out an out Then strike one. I was just no, I don't want to throw that. No, I don't want to throw that No, I don't I want to throw the heater right down the middle on a challenge this guy Bam 99 strike two slider now the home plate on calls him and says he swung Which is just an absolutely terrible call and he says he's got to ask that guy and yeah You got to ask that guy cuz I mean that's one of the worst check swings Calls I've seen in a while now with two outs and a lefty coming up boon comes out and Garrett Cole starts screaming and yelling And he turns to him and he says I'm finishing this motherfucking game right now Let's fucking go boonie says, okay, we just get this one batter then This is the most pitches a starting pitcher has thrown or pitcher any pitcher has thrown all season Higgy says you want to do the three fastballs plan.
