“It’s probably one of my worst innings ever, one of my worst starts ever,” Harvey said. “It’s frustrating. There’s a lot that this team and this organization has wanted me to do, and I just haven’t been able to do that. Especially today, that was pretty embarrassing for me. It was a rough one.” (via MLB.com)
Whoa, pretty strong stuff there from TDKOALA, I mean how bad could it have been? I am curious, aren’t you?
Harvey Day always brings out a big crowd and….

…that’s weird. Do they not have t-shirts in Anaheim of Los Angeles? Where is everyone? Anyway, I really don’t see how this start could have been that bad, I really want to see.
So let’s join the game where it’s already 1-0, that’s weird, and there seem to be two men on already, wow that was fast and….UH OH
And yeah Matt’s face says it all…
OK well it’s 4-0 Twins, I am sure Matt will regroup and hey how did that guy get on second anyway……and UH OH
The Twins scored 6 runs off Matt Harvey in the second inning. His ERA is 7.23.
“Try left-handed, Harvey,” yelled one of the hundreds of fans in attendance at this makeup game. Each one can be heard clearly.

Well, hopefully Matt can settle in from here. On to the third and UH OH….
And with the score 7-0, this is the face of a man realizing he has banged his last model.
Well, things can’t get any worse at this poi….UH OH
Did I not warn the Angels that a lot Matt’s outs were 380 foot fly balls? Sometimes these balls go out. Anyway, the Sweatshirt Bully has seen enough…
But the Twins would like to make sure you saw all the 3rd inning action.

Now you know I loves me some Matt Harvey walking to the dugout pictures so…
Un error llamado “Matt Harvey”!
Los #Angels firmaron en la temporada baja al lanzador derecho Matt Harvey. El club no tomó en cuenta su pasado reciente y le ofreció $11MM por una temporada.
Aquí sus números:
7.50 IP
52 H
11 HR
21 BB
40 CL
35 K
ERA: 7.50. Record 2-4#MLB pic.twitter.com/badtYsdZVD— Carlos Nova (@CarlosnovaMLB) May 24, 2019
For The Dark Knight, 2.2 innings pitched, EIGHT runs, all earned. A walk and a strike out. He is now 2-4 with a 7.50 ERA. I wish I could have live-blogged this one just to see the faces the sweatshirt bully made. Maybe I’ll go through the condensed game once they post it.
The #Royals, who broke Matt Harvey’s spirit in 2015, have probably been the reason he’s stuck around in 2019.
vs. KC: 12 IP, 6 H, 2.25 ERA, 0 HR, 22.4% K, 14.3% BB
vs. The Rest: 36 IP, 46 H, 9.25 ERA, 11 HR, 14.4% K, 8.4% BB
I guess they thought they were returning a favor?

64% of the batted balls Matt Harvey allowed today were hard hit — 9 of 14 — his 3rd career start with a greater than 60% hard-hit rate (min 10 batted balls).
Before this year, he’d had just 1 such start since Statcast began tracking in 2015.
And it was on Sept 25 of last year

Don’t overdo the burritos tonight Matt. Remember the good times…
I guess it just wasn’t a good day for guys named Matt.
