Peavy chasing 20

There's 15 through 6 2/3

 

16 and 117 through 7

 

FWIW, his stuff is (and this is probably obvious) positively nasty. God bless MLB.tv.

 

Damn. He's got a real chance, too, the way he's pitching.

No way they send him out there for the 8th.

 

16 through 7.

Is anyone actually watching this game? Just curious what pitches are working so well.

 

Fastball, mostly. It's moving like crazy.

Slider's been the strikeout pitch for about half of them, though.

 

Do you send him back out? I'd be tempted to, but tell him the first time he doesn't K a guy, he's being pulled.

 

They might. I wonder if they are leaving it up to him.

 

It's all over the fucking place, but diving down in the zone, mostly. And on the rare occasion he throws it straight, the D'backs are swinging where they think it will end up.

 

Also, FWIW, the 7-8-9 batters are due up in the 8th.

 

OK, Padres are done batting in the 8th.
