    Very frustrating night, Myers throws a hell of game and is in line for the loss.

    WALLACE again, guy is making some experts look bad.

    Nice play by Wallace after CJ bobbles the ball then throws low.

    Blum and Sanchez should be shaking their heads for not keeping it at 1-0.

    Myers was great again. Probably regrets that pitch to Dickey though.

    Myers was zipping along until the 5th and 6th innings. I wouldn't be surprised if that didn't affect him a little in the 7th, possibly explaining a couple of careless pitches.

    Tejada was 0-for-28 coming into that AB and Dickey is your typical poor-hitting pitcher.

    I thought Melancon was supposed to have more heat than 93/94 mph. He throws a lot of breaking balls too.

    He does but his breaking stuff is his out pitch, 12-6 curve obviously.

    That was a missed opportunity for sure.

    Dickey's tough to hit but Hunter's worst AB of the game came at a bad time. Swung at a couple of bad pitches.

    That'd be nice. You get the feeling though that our best chance just slipped away.

    I get the feeling that if we're going to win this bad boy its going to be on a fluke hit, walk or hbp and then a bomb.

    Dickey staying in for the 9th after looking like he might get pulled in the 8th.

    Reyes has been a pain in this series. 3-for-4 so far tonight.

    Definitely don't want to let him get on base here.
