Torres will go out for the 6th. 86 pitches. Dodged a lot of bullets, drove in the only run....oh yea.... SCORE SOME RUNS YOU BUMS!!!!!!!!!!! Gotta tip my hat to Torres.

Torres is one tuff cookie. Doubt we can get more than 5 innings out of him tho.

He'll relieve himself, he'll drive in the runs, etc, etc.

But what does he say?! On his way to and up the wall he says: "....with a double dose of confidence like that......" And then CJ finishes the sentence.

Not a great throw by Lags but a nice out. I thought Buck missed with the tag. Replay shows he got him good.

Not a good start. Simmons leads off with a long ball. Nice play by Q. Settle in Torres.

Looks like the left fielder was not past Hayward and in better position than I thought. Smaller chance of it getting past him to the wall, and like Ed said, not sure how that ball would have bounced if Hayward doesn't touch it. Man, if he deflected that into left..... Well, datsAbaseball.

I think Duda is the odd man out of this outfield. I really don't want to see him out there anymore.

I should have read the question before voting. Yep, I'm an idiot. I voted Byrd and I'll stand by it. Why can't Byrd play right next year? Tell you one thing, I have never seen even a moment this season where Byrd wasn't busting it out of the box. Even on routine ground outs. At the plate, in the field, always giving 100%+. Can we squeeze more out of him? I think so. I don't think we are going to get what we really should for him. Now I'm really high on Young and I think maybe he and his potential have found a comfortable home. And if forced to pick one.....well, I'm an idiot. I voted already. If we keep both Byrd and Young I think that fills two big needs, and I'm curious what Alderson will do this off season if we do.

I liked the Laggy move. If you are gonna go with a platoon, stick with it. Esp when you get a chance to get the better hitting of the two into the game. The early moves worked out for Terry because the guys all did what they were supposed to do. And they almost continued to do it in the 9th. I think Collins made all the right moves in this one. Bucks passed ball was big, but what was the story there? Crossed up? On Heyward the diving catch: I didn't think he was going to close the gap between him and the ball. Knowing how he fields, and that he was in center this time, I didn't think it possible. And when he went into the dive, maybe because of earlier events in the game, I expected it to get by him. There was no way he was gonna catch it. When it landed in his glove and stayed there- I even waited a few heartbeats because I was sure the ball would fall from his glove- I was in shock. The play was well backed up. That's not to say that it might not still have rolled to the wall, because the left fielder was by Jason and the play and would have had to circle back (iirc). One run would have scored with ease. When you say "should he have dived?", not knowing the outcome- yes, he had to make that catch and he knew it. And he made it.

Yea, Wright had a bad night. The curve he took, Ill give him. A tuff gig. The fastball....for shame.

Bad game for us, but great baseball. All of Terrys moves were working out fine. Got the ball to Parnell with a lead. Parnell was due, I guess. I don't buy into this "Parnell has finally become a real closer" club. Its the big games where he has to be the most effective. Its not a back breaking loss. But it would have been a wonderful win, and should have been. Score more runs

Byrd 1 Davis 2 Gee 5.1 Hawkins 1.4 Satin 0.5
