Judge, Stanton, Cole and Loiasiga. Anyone else?

This bullpen in particular is a who’s who of AAA pitchers.

Wild pitches but I think catchers who catch from one knee don’t react as fast. Higie would have had both.

I guess he and Sanchez must have roomed together in Instructional League.

It’s hard to justify taking off like he did otherwise on a play that close. I think he took off, realized Wade was holding, then had to stop.

Not sure how they can’t crush the Orioles. Yikes.
