Gathwright as 2nd hitter
I guess we can mark that off our list of options. I think he’s best as the #9, where he can’t get us into so much trouble. He’s been awful in the key “gritty” ABs usually reserved for your Gruds type slap hitters.

Seriously, he has hardly been used on this road trip.
Why screw around? If it’s still a one run game in the bottom of the 8th (and most likely, it will be!), just go straight to Soria, and let tomorrow take care of itself.

It’s up to you guys. We could really use an insurance run or two, with Mahay probably at his limit and 6 outs to go. Perhaps Ramirez can do the trick, but I’ll feel better once we get through the 8th.

Another Gathright slam
don’t know if seeing it on TV can give you the full appreciation, so next time you are at the game in person, take a good look at how shallow and how close to the line the left fielders have been playing Joey. It’s comical.
If this were slow pitch, they would draw a line in the OF and make the left fielder play behind it for him…

Well, at least the game's still open
But we seldom score enough runs for nine innings, how the heck do we score enough for 10+? Well, hope springs eternal.

Teahen has bunted, advanced a baserunner and ran the bases well.
