I finally got a game in last night after a long layoff! I didn't even feel rusty. I was facing the Cardinals and Chris Carpenter and I worked him pretty good. I actually drew 2 walks - maybe the layoff was helpful. I didn't hit any HRs though and I rested Jay Bruce. I'm really missing Brandon Phillips and I forgot he's still out another 1-2 weeks. I was up 3-2 going into the 8th inning and Vasquez pitched into the 7th for me and was holding the lead. I have pitched Pujols fantastic this year. I'm really focused on him and I will walk him without an issue. I have found that he tends to swing at bad pitches more than I would expect. Well in the 8th inning, with 2 strikes, he hits a ball just outside of the zone past my 3rd basement with a man on 2nd. I wish he would have hit it harder since it allowed the tying run to score from 2nd. Then this pissed me off. Hernandez, who sucked at the plate, allows a pass ball and Pujols goes to third. I tried throwing him out at third (I probably should have held it) and Hernandez throws it into the outfield! But no error was ever recorded here and it counted as an earned run! Passed balls aren't recorded as errors but the throwing error certainly should have! I lost 4-3 after leading most of the game. Oh well. Kind of annoyed that the one thing I am really bugged about in this game (lack of user fielding errors and the scoring system) bit me in my first game back in awhile. |

Fired this back up and I won my first game 10-2 and then lost a heartbreaker in the bottom of the 9th 5-4 after leading 4-2 going into the 8th. But I'm decimated by injuries. Brandon Phillips is still out 2-3 weeks and I lost Encarnacion for 2-3 months with a broken leg sliding into 2nd. I'm playing Jerry Hairston at 2B and he tweaked something and is out a few days. And now one of my backup infielders (Keppinger) also hurt something. My lineup is bad right now and all my good hitters are lefties. Yikes! |

Wow. That's pretty crazy you have all those injuries. Did you call up guys from the AAA? |

Let me know how your next couple series go. Those stat screes are always cool.
