    I've seen two really questionable strike calls so far. 1 to Bourn and 1 to Lee in that AB.

    I hate to criticize the NL leader in hits and doubles but Miggy swung at yet another pitch out of the zone and ended up hitting it off the end of his bat. I wouldn't mind seeing him take another pitch or two here and there.

    Wasted Hampton's leadoff double. Had a good chance to tack on another run there...

    Pence has walked once in the last 14 games.

    Hampton has looked great today. This is the second or third time he has gotten a huge strikeout when he has absolutely needed it.

    Ugh. Such a great bullpen, but so many leads blown.

    I think Sampson had 2 strikes against Venable, Gwynn and Eckstein but they all ended up getting hits.

    Most were Geary though, and its very telling that we play so many close games. We pretty much never seem to dominate teams.

    What a waste of Hampton's great effort. No excuse losing games like this.

    Coop's really got Maysonet buried on that bench. I would like to see him get extended reps at third and less Geoff Blum

    Hopefully Pence rips a HR right off the bat. I don't want it to come down to Kata and Quintero or any of our pinch hitters.

    Ugh. The bench is so thin, you can't afford to even hit for Kata.
