Just getting home and turning the game on. I see Pelfrey is starting the 5th, let's hope he doesn't implode soon. How has the game gone so far?

Double by Escobat, nothing else. Sano hit a line drive that almost decapitated the pitcher. Offense hasn't gotten anything done. And now Dozier was 3 feet from hitting another homer

Thanks for the recap! Pelfrey has looked fantastic from the 5th on (all that I've seen today)

He looked great, 2 of their 4 hits were soft infield singles

I've only seen a few innings of the game, but it's been a pitching masterpiece on both sides

As great as Perkins has been the first half of the season, he's been equally awful so far the second half.

It just doesn't make sense to pitch to a guy like that with 2 outs and empty bases, with a guy on deck who was 0-3. Once the call was 2-0, you have to just pitch around

Unfortunately, this is very true. I just have no idea why

This. Cruz has dominated us the entire series. And put something belt high with a 3-0 count and 2 down? It makes no sense

Not the win this time around, but we tie it up and knock Iwakuma out of the game. I'm feeling good about this!
