Dubrule

[kired]

Can we take a moment and appreciate how consistent this guy has been? On base 3 times tonight. Lot of heroes in this game but easy to overlook how important he was in that 8th inning. Scores the first run and knocked in the 6th. Older guy playing with a lot of confidence

So many guys did seemingly little things that added up and were critical in a one-run game.

Dubrule is solid at 2nd and gives us quality at bats. A walk, an opposite field hit slapped in left for our 6th run.

Also big SF vs Texas. He just does his job. I love it.

I give Skinner a ton of credit for his effort on that home run ball. Looked like a routine pop up off the bat to me but he almost got to a ball very few could have and nearly really hurt himself doing it. Great effort.

That ball barely made it over. One has to wonder if a 6’5” Cumbest catches that one.

Cumbest wouldn’t have gotten there to make the play. Skinner is one of the fastest on the team and still couldn’t get to the fence in time to make a play. Cumbest wouldn’t have even been close to the fence if he had to run as far.

This. There's a reason Skinner replaces Cumbest on defense late in games.

You’re absolutely correct that Dubrule is an unsung hero on this team. You can count on that guy to hit and get on base. He’s just all around ball player. He may not have the theatrics, but he’s consistent and dependable. He was a great get.

As we have once again seen, the margins for winning and losing in Omaha are often razor thin. I've thought all season that Dubrule would play a big role if we got this done. You just need guys like him in your lineup this time of year.
