Well I was idiotic enough to stay up until 1 a.m. watching last night's game. I'm tireder than a dog today at my office. I blame Bigboy for forcing me to prove I'm still a real fan.
I should have just gone to bed when Hancock entered the game. When it got to that point, you knew it was over.
What the hell was that last out in the top of the twelfth about? The Cardinals are trying to spin it as a double-steal "trick play," but I'm not buying that...Pujols wasn't waiting for the guy on first to take off, he was halfway home while the pitcher was still in his windup. It was a straight steal. I know we can't get a hit with runners on base to save our lives right now, but that was just a crazy stupid play that shakes my faith in this year's team a bit. Even if we can't hit much, we can win games with pitching and defense if we play smart. If we play stupid, it's over.
Lots of pressure on Kip Wells to pitch a lot of innings today. Our bullpen is torched for this afternoon's game. Also, the Giants are throwing a lefty at us, and our hitters are allergic to southpaws. I don't have a good feeling about this. But maybe I'm just tired and grouchy.
