Jeffress imploded in the fifth

Until that point, he’d only allowed a double and a walk, resulting in one run. Overall, I have to think this is still an encouraging outing for him, though it should be noted this is the second time he’s completely fallen apart after cruising for a few innings.

Also, Evan Anundsen’s second straight really great start should not be overlooked.

He's extremely quick and good.

Jeffress

Anyone have any more insight onto Jeffress’ outing? The 10 K’s out of 13 outs was impressive….and only one walk. And if that double and walk were out of the way early as battlekow indicated by the fifth inning, that leaves basically three hits he surrendered in the fifth? Is that right? If that’s the case where did the quick hook come from? Three hits in an inning happens to everyone. And how did he get 6 earned runs charged to him? Did he plunk a few?
The numbers just aren’t adding up. Someone please fill in the blanks!!

Recap

Check out the recap here. Note the 4th and first part of the 5th for Lakeland. He did plunk 2 batters in the 5th and left the bags full.

The Wallbangers won because they played the game like kids! Let's do that again!!!
