This ought to be a slaughter; and not the kind you want...

 

[sutz]

I hope they surprise us, though I don't have much hope.

 

[Chapow]

McClanahan has the best ERA out of all starting pitchers in MLB.

So basically, our offense is probably going to look like they do most of the time anyway. Haha.

 

[sutz]

Miller was off to a great start, then pulled with a finger issue.

Offense actually took a 4-0 lead, but Miller lost control because of the finger and gave up 2.

Brash in. Got final out in 4th and out there for the 5th.

 

[beastalamode]

I was wondering what happened to miller. I thought to myself if SS pulled him just cause of the homer......

 

[sutz]

Bullpen can't hold the lead. Gott gives up the tying HR.

 

[Bobblehead]

ugh

 

[Chapow]

This team is an embarrassment.

 

[Vesuve]

This team is an embarrassment.

Marineresque....

 

[sutz]

That unraveled quickly.

Going to the 8th.

George Kirby pitching a good game.

He's hit the 100 pitch mark. I expect to see a reliever soon......

And then.....who knows what will happen.....

 

[sutz]

Kirby Ks Siri 3 times.

Great game by the kid. Actually had some situational hitting today.

Two innings to go, though. JP draws a walk to start the bottom of 7. Would love to add on some insurance runs to save Kirby's win.

 

[Chapow]

WOW! They actually managed to score some runs with the bases loaded and no outs. It's a miracle!

 

[sutz]

Topa getting soft here. 1st and 3rd with 1 out.

 

[sutz]

Have I said recently how much I RBI singles.

 

[sutz]

Not the payback I wanted, but I'll take 8-3 going into the 9th. Go Paul Sewald.

 

[sutz]

And Sewald for the "save." Not really an official save, but it felt like it. (Really bad call on that last called strike. )

 

[sutz]

I'm glad that total runs in the series doesn't count for anything.

Going into Game 3 with a shot at a series win. Can't beat that after the Friday game.
