Tit for tat as Buck lines out to a diving shortstop. That was a nice play by Buck last inning. Are two runs gonna be enough? Can the pen continue to be as good as they've been? Wheeler up to 93 pitches.

I don't buy that "they are rookies" excuse. What?,they don't have third base coaches in the minors? Maybe Tuefel did mess him up there tho, with the timing of the hold.
Cooome on. Ike and Buck let an easy pop foul fall between them. Either could have caught it, both backed off. Almost a great DP started by Muffy. Nice play. Got the lead runner.
Young leads off the game with a hit but that's about it. Might be another shitty home plate ump but that looked like it could have been a strike to Murph, who is called out on strikes to end the first. Danny got a little verbal. Lil bit.
Jay Horwitz:"You�re not looking to make money, you�re hoping you build, get more next year, more the third year," he said. Then why not make it more affordable? Sheesh.

It says that the description box should be longer across. But what would they have filled it with? The manual says always ask yourself what would Topps do. And after that ask everybody else.
