Cannon
This Clayton Ker Gal has thrown 115 pitches in 6 innings. She has not improved in this area. One reason for that is she doesn't trust her fastball in full count situations. She keeps throwing junk in the lower part of the zone, and they keep fouling it off. Finally, she gets them to hit a ground ball in fair territory, and gets out of it. Now, she is a useful pitcher, but I think this way of pitching hurts her own team's offense. It's my own opinion that, in a psychological battle of wills (close low-scoring game,) there is a marked advantage to the team that is the most efficient at getting the other team out. It's not a confidence builder to constantly be fighting off another team's offensive threats. Not only that, but she often hangs a junk pitch when she gets in the 6th, or 7th inning. She didn't tonite, but she usually will. That usually puts her team down. She seems like a perfect fit for the Yankees hi-scoring team.

Blake took a big bite. He earned that cookie pitch. Nice at bat for the mediocre Unabomber.

Broxton with a 4 run lead in the 8th. Must (now, and forever) have a very short leash on this cow. That's key. Like Reagan with the Russians. Never again trust, or you will get a face crushed.

Brain food finally kicking in. Geritol man takes cow out (before she blows the whole lead.) I can take losing a big lead, but can't take Broxton doing it.

Kuo throws 96 on the outside corner, and we are out of the 8th inning. His control ain't good enough to be a closer, but at least his head is male.

4 in a row on the road. Couldn't tell ya the last time that took place. Might be pre-Geedubbya. They need to win 23 of 33, and if it (90 wins) ain't enough, then it's still better than quiting. They need to get as much respect back as possible. Brox did a lot of damage to the organization 2 weeks ago. My Dad took a header that night. 85 year old Italian guy (living next door to him) put his fist through a wall. That night in Philly was at least a mini stroke. Took about 10-11 days for the team to get over that crap.
