First 2 Cards reach in the 8th…..better plate at least one here and hopefully a fistful of runs to salt this baby away.
Just joshing about the King comment by the way. Just wanted to ruffle a few feathers.
I consider saving Libby for the Thompson start, now.

I know you were Pugs. But consider my feathers still ruffled.

I think I agree JJ. I’d do 2 of Gio and if it’s still 1 run, then Helsley. Otherwise Kittredge.
Libby as long relief if needed
Matsui was a perfect 3-3……all 3 batters he faced reached base….2 via walks. Pitching change: Wandy Peralta on for SD.
Bases bubbling with Birds and nary an out. Need at least 2 runs here.

But if in fact it does get to a 15 run lead here, then surely we can risk Fernandez.
Nado rips one for the RBI…
Keep scoring gentlemen…..I want to score so many runs where John King would be a viable option to see action in this game.

This is not enough Pugs. Sorry.
Ouch! That Gorman twin killing hurt. We still have ourselves a ballgame.
Ha! It sure isn’t, Jnevel. We needed at least 7 more.
The way Kitty is purring here in the 8th, I think I’d send him back out in the 9th.
Kittredge gets some 8th inning time
I think Jnevel wants Fernandez

If it’s still a 3-run lead going to the bottom of the 9th, then I think it’s a sure bet we’ll see Helsley. I don’t like that move. I agree with just sticking with Kittredge.

Ok. Not the time for a sac bunt. Steal with Siani instead.

Gameday says those last two pitches to Donovan were definitely balls.
Terrible strike 3 call on Donovan.

And Helsley it is . . . Sigh.
I’m still in on the win streak idea
