    Does the free nights on electricity bother anybody else? Just seems like it encourages wasting electricity.

    Two more scoreless IP by McHugh equals a decent start and a series win.

    Great bullpen. Offense will score more.

    Wouldn't be a terrible idea for Marwin to push a bunt down the 1B line, there's a lardass at 1st, a lardass at C and the pitcher does not finish in any sort of position to field a ball to that side.

    Man, Springer has embraced that lead off role.

    Well, would be a tie game if Marwin would have done anything at all...

    Castro to third would have been nice. He's so slow

    Not quite....Plus, you are assuming that everything would have transpired the exact same way had Castro been on third with one out.

    What a waste of a lead off double by Castro

    It was the right idea for Marwin, that 2nd bunt attempt looked like something out of Jr High, then the strike 3 swing was a wtf

    Same as last season.

    Made no sense not repeating start of this season and/or wait so long this season to repeat.

    Switching the 2-hole with a lower batter was nice.

    Was more implying if he could have just got the bunt down.

    Schucks momentum was carrying back and away from home plate, I fee like even Castro could have made it home on that.

    Obviously you never know how differently players would have been approached etc. Guess the point being Marwin really hurt us that inning, I think we can just both stop and agree with that.
