Chavis leads off Bucs 8th with a triple for his 3rd hit. Good thing Shelton kept him so well rested.  :)

my first but not last big mistake of the season. At one point in the top of the 8th I wondered who was going to pinch hit for Bednar in bottom of 8th.

He lulled the 2Bman to sleep for a throwing error that scored 2 runs. 6-2 Bucs.
