Interesting comments from Macnamee

Postgame said the pitcher was great, but he knew after that long rain delay he wouldn’t have his fastball, so he sat on the changeup. And that’s what he hit out.

He must have a pretty good hitting coach...

I tried tellin that pitcher from my tv he better not throw it close cause Eli was swinging either way on that one. Glad he threw it close. Eli smoked it...

He rarely used his fastball. Only an elevated one to try to get us to chase. He kept us guessing all game. He's going to be good on the next level. I kinda feel sorry for him. He hadn't walked anyone until the 9th, where he proceeded to walk 2. No one but Mangum barrelled him up, once but right at CF. Only 3 hits given up, & only 4 baserunners all damn game and those hits were soft bloops.

I'm sure HE said he was good to go, but as a coach you have to see through that.

As a coach you have to realize he threw 100 pitches then sat for 2.5 hours. No matter what he did for those 2.5 hours his arm was stiff. He’s lucky he didn’t injure his arm.

 

[patdog]

Yeah. Pretty inexcusable to bring him back out. And not smart even if you don't care at all about his future. No way he could be effective after sitting for that long after throwing that many pitches. Martin deserved to lose that game.

Everything in the 9th was soft.

He did throw a FB at 93 or 94 though earlier in the inning. Is that where he was earlier in the game?

Dumbest coaching move ever.
Thanks FSU!!
