Diaz ran into some tough luck with that strikeout/wild pitch. Game should have been over with him only giving up the one hit. Correa time that jump perfectly. Way to pick up your pitcher, Capitan Correa.
Martes was all over the place but he muddled through a decent start. Sonny Gray just cant seem to get good results despite solid peripherals. Ive been concerned about that all year. Needless to say this outing didn't make me feel better about sending a big package to get him.
Team feeling a little down? Not playing as well as before? Well? Go on a road trip starting with the As! That will cure what ails ya!
Diaz being on the roster is a bad thing, but much like the game we blew to KC, Hinch really wanted to rest some guys. Thankfully it worked out.
Great win. I fell asleep before oakland came up in the 9th. Woke up this morning and had to make sure we held on. We did. Good win.
