Finally the offense wakes up. Let's hope they don't just go through the motions from here on out. No lead has been safe lately

1. Hmmm, this game is starting to remind me of the Junior League World Series championship game earlier today (in terms of offensive output).

2. If they manage to blow a 7-run lead, the entire pitching staff deserves to be fired. :rollseyes:

We may not score 8 runs the next 3 games total so they need to keep putting more runs up

Doesn't your statement actually support the idea of spreading out runs over multiple games (if they can), though? After all, a win by any margin is a win, and a loss by any margin is a loss-- surely 4-3, 4-3, 4-3 is preferable to 8-3, 2-3, 2-3?

theres no such thing as spreading runs out. youre not given a total amount to distribute how you want. id imagine he wants more runs to tax the rockies bullpen before the game tomorrow.

Hence the "if they can" (because that's a big if). My point is simply that I would prefer a consistent offense rather than one that scores 8 on one day and 0 on the next two days.

We lose the game 9-8 and jj gets another blown save in the 9th when our lead will be down to 8-7

If they can't hold this lead pack up the tents.

:L You'd think by what they've seen they be alot smarter than that.

Today's situation is slightly different, though: they carried a 4-run lead into the 9th inning. That means no blown save by Johnson.
