One in a row again. :)

Drama in the 9th, but Munoz wiggles out of trouble. Tying run on 3d with no outs and he makes it happen somehow. 30 pitches, though, means he's probably not available tomorrow.

Castillo still throwing very hittable balls. Had a decent streak for a few starts, but not so good against the power bats of the Dodgers.

Robles replaces Canzone in the 9th for defensive purposes and he promptly commits an error to put a run across and Ohtani on 3rd with no outs. Munoz got out of it, but damn they had to work to do it.

Offense wakes up again. Can they keep it up? Would be nice. Even Refsnyder had a dinger and a double.

They need to keep Cal buried deep in the lineup. Leave him down there until he gets his swing right. He's coming around, but still a little off in his timing.

What a game, hopefully they can build from this. Can’t believe how good Canzone is. That Sewald trade is looking pretty good right now. Just need to find a way to take one of the next two games.

No doubt. Not sure why Dan had him at 2 for such a huge part of the season. Well......Dan.

I assume he thought that more reps would help him come around. Sometimes that's what a player needs. Hasn't worked for Cal, though. Thankfully he's a plus defensive catcher, but most catchers bat low in the order anyway.

Canzone definitely needs more ABs. :)
