Great fun last night. It was inspirational.
I’m still angry about the runner-on-2d rule for the tenth inning. The game Tuesday night was a travesty.
What a great performance by Rodon;
114 pitches, with 7 strikeouts, pretty doggone efficient.
Fastest pitches of the night were in the 8th and 9th.
Tough to see the perfecto go to the wayside but a crisply pitched no-no.
That backstory, his comeback, then last night… how can you *not* be romantic about baseball?
It was a toe tapping good night. Almost a perfect night…. Mercedes does it again (you know because the game before the genius manager sat his hottest hitter against the best pitcher in baseball which makes a lot of sense, right?). That high fastball, sweeping slider, and that low inside change up that looked like it was dancing on the way to the plate was just too much for anyone. What a great game.
