I got nothing

We would've won if there wasn't so much confusion over the game's start time.

Even though we won 2 out of 3 games this series, we still don't look like we've improved. Good starting pitching, Offense is still anemic, defense is still sub-par (an error, a missed double play, and a should-have-been passed ball) and a shaky bullpen (although they looked a little better this series). They need to snap out of this against teams better than the Cubs.

Pinch hitting Baker for Paulino in the 8th is the lulz.

[Ramp]

for what it's worth, Paulino is 1/7 with 4k against Marmol in his career

I was listening on mlb atbat. Was the 3-1 pitch to BC possibly ball 4 if he doesn't swing at it?

[Ramp]

I think it was a good pitch to hit

[Namaste]

I only ask because it sounded like Marmol couldn't find the zone (he walked the previous guy pretty quickly) and I think you have to allow him to dig himself a bigger hole (you know, like Hanley did).

[Ramp]

I mean he put a good swing on it and didn't look like he was fooled. Just unlucky that he hit it right at Soriano.

[Beef]

Yeah, that pitch was in his wheelhouse.

So long as his wheelhouse is right down the middle.

He had to swing at it

[Namaste]

Ok cool. DVH made it sound like it was low and possibly a ball but DVH does that.....

I captured Ronnie "Woo Woo" Wickers in the loss
