The M's got off to a great start vs. Haren, scoring two in the 1st (believe it or not, for the first time since August 20, 2011 when they scored 3 in the 1st in the Bronx). Brendan singled, Dustin walked, they both advanced on a long fly ball by Justin and both came home on Adam's base hit.
Felix wasn't to sharp early but, after giving up the homer to Trumbo in the 4th, he retired 12-in-a-row which got him through the 7th with 110 pitches. Some would wonder, with the heart of the Halo order coming up and Felix cruising - why go to the pen?
David came in for the 8th and promptly gave up a single to Hunter and then got two outs before an intentional walk to Kendrick ended up back-firing when Cayaspo doubled to score two and put the Halos up for good 4-2
GOOD, great (but BAD for the M's) and UGLY
- Congrats to Kyle on his first MLB hit - a solid single up the middle and he gets to 3B on an error by fellow rookie, Trout.
- Amazing diving play by Hunter in the top of the 3rd to rob Dustin of at least a double
- And, once again, the opposing team receives the benefit of a three ball walk #IneptUmps
