Second night in a row, like Lance Berkman not counting outs last night.Lopez gave up 4 hits (only 1 “mistake” pitch the 3-0 FB up and down the middle that Jason Lane hit over the fence at least it was a REAL HR 385 instead of those el-cheapo replica Blancpain 5085F-113 Men's watch ones over the 5 fences so easy to get there) and 1 walk and 2 HBP.So we stranded all 5 runners.He needed 110 pitches for 8 innings and an el-sucko journeyman mopped up the 9th.We have an off day today.Good.Well, actually, we've had an off 3 days.
6 more games of this stupid interleague crap before we get back to real baseball.And one last thing in my opinion, Bud Selig has done a LOT of really bad things as commissioner, but as far as I'm concerned, if he forces NL parks to use the DH for replica Blancpain 3485F.1141.53B Ladie's watch interleague games, he needs to be covered with honey and left on top of a fire ant mound.Not that I would need real to much encouragement to do that to Buddy Boy for all his previous egregious trespasses against the Church of Baseball….
Pitchers hitting RBIs is very cool.And Roy finally got his OBP over his weight with his ROE in the 4th also very cool.Actually, I think TLR’s idea of having the pitcher bat 8th, with .300 hitting Aaron Miles batting 9th is actually a great idea and I’m not sure why a lot more teams haven’t tried it out (and yes I know if any manager not TLR or replica Jaeger LeCoultre 296.81.20 watch Bobby Cox did that, they media would be all OVAH their butts….) Of course, you need a decent hitter to hit 9th, or you really haven’t improved matters.Cooper juggled the lineup again what a surprise and now he has Pence batting leadoff with Biggio batting second.
