    lol... hard hit but right to Pence.

    It would've almost been fitting to see Pence misjudge that somehow like he's done about 5 times over the last 10 games or so.

    Onhell with the game-winning RBI.

    Finally. What an adventure of a 12th inning for The Hairless One.

    Does Chacin get the save?

    Edit:
    Apparently, he did.

    :grin:

    Every one of those last 4 innings was excruciating...

    At the end there, Chacin was just closing his eyes and trying to throw fastballs in the vicinity of the plate.

    J.D. can do better than with Q. So many more creative options.

    Pretty ridiculous how they hand out Ws and Ls.

    Myers was awesome and gets a ND. The only run he gave up came after Lee's blunder. Yea, I know the bobrek rule but still... he had a chance to give up nothing.

    Meanwhile, neither Lyon (despite giving up no runs) or Chacin pitched well but get credited with a W and S, respectively.

    I think they need a new category ... Attempted Blown Save.

    Chacin needs to be set free.

    Or, "Rule Book Save" (i.e. undeserved, but we gotta give it to him because of the rules)
