Striking out was OK - it didn’t do any harm - he didn’t hit into a double play.
Left the bases loaded for Dustin, too!

lol! I’ll fall off this chair if Gagne is in this game. Just get it over, Tito.
To: AmericanMade1776
The rookies did great especially with Papi and Manny not smashing the ball the last two games.
To: big'ol_freeper
Word just in. Eric Gagne is wrestling free from his bonds. Security has been called. The duct tape is the last hope we have for getting us to the world series.
