Thanks for the ping! Loving all the games! Hoping Tampa Bay beats the Red Sox’s...but I am doubtful. Too bad about the Tigers last night, they always seem to blow it at the end! But it is still all good, the Cardinals won but they better look out, the Pirates r tough and want it BAD! (Dear God, please don’t let another California team win....lol!!)

Mears, these rookie starters have been impressive. Maybe cuz they are not worn down from a 200+ inning season.

On the other hand, many of the rookie relievers seem to have Calvin_Schiraldi-Syndrome.

STL vs. PITT on THUR ... each team will have a 9-man bullpen, even though it won’t be necessary. WILL FRANCISCO LIRIANO BE AVAILABLE for a few innings out of the pen on Jim_Lonberg_3-day_rest ???

Doesn’t matter now, the Braves are gonzo.

I did not forget about Brian Wilson. He's already the setup man for Jansen. Rodriguez and Belisario were supposed to be 6th-7th inning pitchers but they have become ineffective lately.

Mattingly took a big chance with Kershaw pitching with three days’ rest and Uribe trying to bunt. Fortunately it worked out great for the Dodgers.

Fister at 50 pitches thru 2 innings
Tigers have basically announced Scherzer for game 5 so Verlander (117 pitches SAT) today in relief? The A’s use Gray (111 pitches SAT) today in relief? They are going with Colon on THUR?

I think OAK wins the series today.

Lowrie 2-run HR puts the A’s up 3-0 in the 5th.

Well, we got our answer as Peralta puts it in the seats for a 3-run homer. Tie game.

I missed it, damn. I flipped over to “Triggers” on the Military Channel.

Or not. The only thing the Tigers have really been lacking is the bats. They can wake up without warning.

We forget what a great defensive player Cabrera is when he’s healthy.
