Drinos 2, Metsies 1 (again!) (again!)

Great at bat by Scotty last night in the 10th. Facing Pete Feliciano here is the pitch-by-pitch breakdown:

1. Feliciano throws a slow slider that stays outside. Scotty offers a half-hearted bunt attempt at it (so devious, that Scotty, showing bunt when he is planning to hit a walk off bomb) and then pulls back and lets it pass. 1-0.

2. Feliciano brings that side arm fastball of his down the pipe at 87 mph and Scotty fouls it straight back behind the plate. 1-1.

3. A slider that dips inside completely ties up Scotty and sends him to his right knee but, though close, Lance Diaz at 1B rules he doesn't swing. Crucial call to keep the count in Scotty's favor. 2-1.

4. An 86 mph fastball stays wide and Scotty just spits on it. 3-1.

5. On the 3-1 pitch, Feliciano throws another mid-80s "fastball" that starts on the outer half and then fades back middle-in and Scotty unleashes his compact swing and drives the ball out of the park.

What. A. Beast.
