Here on CF for the basketball... but ya gotta love a walkoff!!! Right??!? Pena is a good looking kid.
I wonder what the record is for fewest hits by a team in a 3-game series? I would imagine that 8 hits has got to be near the worst.
So much for Pena being lost at the plate. All it takes is a 4-5 day with 2 bombs and a walkoff, lol. What a series, boys!
What a game. Glad to have seen it live. Pena has got some power and time to add more over the next several years. Great way to come through at the #2 spot.
BUT they need to fire Dusty, because it should be 20 game lead! He is such a bad manager. You know, he lost 2 World Series? Who cares if he won more than 2000 games, he lost 1700! /s
Side note: Tucker was officially credited with an outfield assist on the Maldonado-Ward play, it is scored as 9-4-2. Good for him as he makes a bid for both the Gold Glove and Platinum Glove.
Mike Trout probably had his worst series of the year. His team got dismantled twice and then walked off for the sweep as the ball traveled over his head. Sheesh.
This aged well... Even before this game Pena was slashing .313/.333/.469/.802 in his 30+ plate appearances. After today he is hitting .378/.394/.676/1.070 in the 2nd position.
