1. Hmmm, something about last night reminded me of something, can't quite place it, oh yeah last Friday when Rox lost by one in extra innings...
2. Rox are 0-2 in one run games, held scoreless for 13 innings, and had multiple chances (heck even had a guy on third with no one out) yet no one could get a lousy single to drive Herrera home. That my friends is pathetic!
3. Tulo and CarGo went a combined 0-11 with 4 K's.
4. Team went 1-15 with Runner's in Scoring Position and had 15 K's...again what did Lansford say during Spring Training...you win on the road with key base hits and small ball...
5. Bullpen went 9 innings, better hope Reynolds goes deep today because bullpen got worked.
6. Street won't be pitching today after going 3 innings...yikes (although he only threw 27 pitches which is a typical nightmare inning for him ;)) This is only his third outing of his career where he has gone 3 innings (360 appearances)! And he got to bat too, only his second plate appearance! Love it when closers hit! He sent it deep in centerfield...wouldn't it have been cool had he hit one out to win it?
7. Wonder why Tracy went with Paulino in the 9th rather than Betancourt? Don't use your best relief until you have a lead when on the road?
8. Morales always seems to get thrown into an impossible situation and then invariably loses it...
9. How much did the offensive not contribute to the game? Offense WPA -0.884 and Pitching WPA 0.427...
10. Best quote of the year so far, from Hurdle after yesterday's loss, "I don't know, I'm not a psychologist. I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express."
