M's 3 Red Sox 2

Whoduthunk with Jaku, Olson and Vargas taking the mound that the M's had a chance of winning one game, let along taking the series!?!

This one was a really fun one to be at, as it had a little of everything...
~ lots a hits (but few runs)
~ some crummy defense and some really awesome defense (on both sides)
~ great pitching all around
~ takin' advantage of a boo-boo and one very timely hit :-)

A really stand-out stat for the homestand so far...
~ the bullpen hasn't surrendered a run

And the stand-out for this particular game...
~ aside from Franklin's walk-off RBI? Gotta be Mark coming in throwing 99+mph and striking out all three batters he faced in the 8th

Here's to the good things from this series carrying over to the next ~ as the Halos come to town for four.

  1. I heard they're trying to deal betancourt to the Pirates for Jack Wilson.

    As for the game, good jobs to Lowe and Vargas, they still need to get Griffey out of the 3 spot and quick!
