Well first, Mark, what can you tell us about Jacob Wilson was in the lineup and then wasn't, wasn't able to play?
Jacob's got a shoulder issue that we've been dealing with for a while.
Obviously, he came up, tried to hit this today, couldn't really get full range of motion, so he's day-to-day.
So nothing more than day-to-day, could, could possibly play tomorrow?
There's a possibility of him being able, available, yeah.
What'd you see from Barnett tonight?
Just, really no command.
You know, he hurt himself.
We hurt ourselves in the first.
We gave away too many bases.
A wild pitch gave up two bases.
A throw from Butler gave up an extra base.
Obviously, you know, not great command and, just a, a really, just not a great outing today from, from Mason.
Did you like the fight, though, of the offense with three home runs against Wacha, who's had an All-Star year?
I did.
I, I did like the fight.
We got back in the game, closed it to two.
You know, the bullpen, I thought, Chung did a good job.
You know, Blewitt, we had a chance if he steps off to, to get Witt in a run down on a, and, and not give up an extra run.
So a lot of small detail things that we're trying to clean up.
We played a better, I mean, we played better baseball over the weekend, and, to come here tonight and give up so many free bases, make so many small mistakes, led to us, on the losing end.
