guys nasty running sat teeth
the thing sat up and hissed at us, with those nasty teeth showing. We had guys running out of its way.
great lacking runs slide
That was a great slide and we got two runs out of it. That is something we have been lacking all year.
late runs
We've got to keep those runs from scoring, especially late in the ballgame.
added bases earlier load rest run score sort
When you load the bases with no outs, you want to score more than one run. When we added Lopez's two to the run we got earlier that inning, it was sort of a springboard for the rest of the game.
add everybody happened runs supposed
To add the runs on is huge. You really couldn't write it up better than it happened tonight. Everybody is doing what they're supposed to do in the lineup.
drive hits momentum runs
Two-out hits to drive in runs are huge. They are momentum killers to the other side.
benefit certainly ready rest run
It was certainly the most nerve-wracking way to go. But we'll benefit in the long run by having him ready for the rest of the month.
bunt choice good great runner second
With no outs and a runner on second, it's a good play. It was his choice to get the runner over like that, and it was his second great bunt in two nights.
against run situation team
You don't very often get out of a bases-loaded, nobody-out situation without a run being scored. Especially against a team like that,
betting double run steal throwing tonight tried
You don't try a double steal very often, but we tried it tonight and it worked. When you run a double steal, you're betting on them throwing through. When they don't, it makes you look awfully foolish.
ball runs score threw
Jarrod threw the ball very, very well. He was outstanding. We just couldn't score runs off the other guy.
runs score
He pitched an outstanding game. We just couldn't score enough runs for him to win.
running two air
Five runs with two outs is tough to take. It sure took the air out of our balloon.
caught glad hit sure
We weren't sure if he caught it just before he hit or as he hit. After he hit the ground, we were glad to see him get back up.
