This one was fun to be at!
From Mike Sweeney scoring from 3B on a tapper back to the mound, to the defensive "scramble" in the 4th inning.
Russell tweaked his bat striking out in the 3rd, so Don had an interesting substitution...

~ Jack H from 3rd to 1st
~ Bill from RF to 3B
~ Ryan from LF to RF
~ Micheal Saunders in at LF

Yowsa!
That would be enough to give Felix a headache (if he hadn't already woken up with a doozy of a sinus headache to begin with). But, despite not feeling or performing his best, Felix gutted it out through seven innings and saw his team do everything possible (defensively and offensively) to help him earn (finally!) his 13th victory.


It will be interesting to see how Jak Z addresses the offensive need in the off-season, but I sure am loving the defense and flexibility he has acquired in nearly every acquisition.
