I was trying to enjoy a fine day at Wrigley Field with family for my birthday, and Kerry Wood had to go out a blow it. That was generous of him. But actually, Kid Blown Save would have been off the hook had Lou Piniella made the appropriate lineup adjustments in the 9th.
You see, Alfonso Soriana and his suck returned to the lineup Thursday, which means he was guaranteed to sort of kind of chase after any balls hit in his direction. Gabe Kapler sent a Kerry Wood floater deep to left field in the bottom of the 9th, a solid rope, but one 90% of left field would get to. In fact, the Cubs very own Reed Johnson would have easy corralled the hit had Lou made that adjustment.
Asked after the game if he even gave it a thought:
"You're damn right I thought about it. You think I'm stupid or something?"Yes, Lou, sometimes we do. Brewers 4, Cubs 3.
Devil went down to Tampa What's gotten into our beloved Rays? They're supposed to lose and lose often. However, the winning season that many predicted is coming to fruition, thanks to good pitching (Matt Garza 6 IP, 3 H, 2 ER) and clutch hitting (Carl Crawford two-run go ahead single in the 7th). Rays 4, O's 2.
Sweeps Week Just 1 game under .500, the Tigers gave it the Yanks this week. Clearly celebrating the departure of Gas Can Grilli, Magglio Ordonez had himself a day. Are we all on the same page in agreeing Detroit is still going to win the AL Central? Tigers 8, Yankees 4.
