Definitely one of the best games all season!
Despite a little issue in the first inning (which had him throwing so many pitches, I wasn't sure he would make it through FIVE, let alone SEVEN) Felix appears to be back on track...
7 IP - 7H - 1ER - 1BB - 7K ... that's the type of Felix line we are used to!
Once again, the 'pen came through...
though they showed their "bend but don't break" side as opposed to their "lock-down" version.
~ League gave up a couple of hits but got through 8th unscathed thanks, in part, to a great play by Smoak on a Sanchez ground out.
~ In the 9th, Wilhelmsen loaded the bases (with one out) on a single and back-to-back walks but then got Cabrera to strike out and the pinch hitter, Schierholtz, to ground out to ... Smoak.
And, we still had a tie, until Justin (having already helped with the glove) came through with the bat...
Seager and Montero hit back-to-back singles and were replaced by pinch runners Figgins and Kawasaki respectively. Saunders muffed a bunt and Figgy was thrown out at 3B and then, Justin came up with the hit that would garner him a shaving cream pie...

Awesome! And, even better than I got to see it all in person ... with my dad!
Happy Father's Day!!!
At least the homestand from hell ended on a good note...
