Seriously guys, can it get any more frustrating than this? I might as well have been listening to nails scratching a chalk board all afternoon while having the game on radio at work. It must have been worse to watch on TV. This team is just completely flawed in every aspect of the game.
-Defense. Error in the first proved costly.
-Offense. Sure they scored 5 runs but they should have doubled that total considering all the opportunities they had.
-Starting Pitching. Bergmann pitched himself out of the rotation as far as I'm concerned.
-Relief Pitching. Sure enough Manny does the unthinkable and puts his closer in a non-save situation. That is always the kiss of death. Rauch promptly gave up 2 doubles which led to another run and ruined any chance of a come back we might have in the 9th.
