Last thoughts on the game from me. Roberts was incredibly aggressive in the blow up inning. Davey sent Clay out against the bottom of the line up with a lot of lefties coming up. Roberts figured he was going to use pinch hitters at some point, so better against Clay than Hudson. He just about emptied his bench in the 7th. 3 pinch hitters, then when Voth came in, he pinch hit for a pinch hitter to get handedness matchups he wanted. He used everyone except Will Smith the catcher. HE ended up having to move Muncy to 2d and play Pujols in the field, which cost them a run, but the aggression certainly worked. There were a few breaks in the mix, too, like the flare over the drawn in infield. Sometimes the magic works.
