Need 9 more outs.....these late ones have been difficult to obtain without runs crossing the plate.

Today will be different, I have a feeling

both were pulled in the middle of AB's.

I'm betting that's the last we see of both of them for the season.

Shreve gives up a lead off single, and I'm going into nervous mode

An infield pop up (which makes me nervous) followed by a 3-6-3 DP that looked silky smooth and I can relax.

Sure would be nice to see more runs.

Man is Tucker terrible.....strikes out in 6 balls, swinging at 3 of them...and we're not talking borderline "protect the plate" stuff

Sad to hear. He's been looking pretty sick for a couple years now.

ALS is an awful disease. Sad when we get someone at rehab with that diagnosis, because we know the eventual outcome...and so do they.
