We get another run and Papelbon comes in to close the door in the ninth.

This game is in the bag! Some timely hitting tonite.

 

[Retroram52]

lol. Youth is helping , retro. Damn old man Ruiz just got a double, his 4th hit.

Yep, the youth are really coming through jvett.

 

[Retroram52]

Papelbon is throwing major heat.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice K with a nice splitter.

 

[Retroram52]

Herrera is just getting better and better.

 

[Retroram52]

Damn it. 2-out double.

 

[Retroram52]

That was stupid. Tying run to the plate.

 

[jvett77]

Pape gives up a double and hits Jay. Tying run at the plate. Christ, nothin's easy.

 

[jvett77]

One more strike. Let's go.

 

[jvett77]

K! We win! Looking forward to Severino's debut tomorrow.

 

[Retroram52]

Papelbon gets the batter to go to 111 saves, one behind the all-time saves leader, Mesa. That was a bit of scare but we get the win and start this 10-game roadie with an 8-12 record tied with the fish.

 

[Retroram52]

K! We win! Looking forward to Severino's debut tomorrow.

Yea me too jvett but I'll be probably late getting in-work.

 

[jvett77]

I hope this guy impresses and gets to stay up for awhile.

This was a weird game to watch. Hamels pitched well, but it seriously felt like the Cardinals dominated this game even when they were behind. The game was defined by two bunt sequences. Strange sport, but I love it. Cards will bounce back. Haven't lost a series yet.
