don't get me wrong.... i'm very happy we came away with a win, and i'm REALLY happy to see a rookie get his first Major League hit in his Debut game... to win the game for the team, however....

was there a reason for that to happen?  should they have even been in that situation?  absolutely not.  Going into the 9th with a 6 run lead, and blowing it?  Costing Bronson a MUCH NEEDED win after a GREAT OUTING, and blowing a shutout?

i will admit though... its nice to see this team manufacturing runs again, and playing "small ball"  and it is also nice to see Harriston batting like a champ. single, double and a triple tonight!

After last nights win, and tonights almost blown W,  my record is now up to 7-5! hooray!  at least i'm over .500 at games i've attended....

one more note.  I know mike lincoln looked really good in the 8th (shutting down the side) however why bring him out again in the 9th?  had he not put the men on base, cordero's base hit and homer that he gave up would have meant nothing... except blowing a possible shutout. 

goood move dusty... but i guess i'm not a manager for a reason.
