Could be a costly mistake to take Maldonado out. Hope not.

If that sinking liner by Vaz had not been caught - we would have some wiggle room.

Pretty nice- and risky play by Zona.

Kept his hips closed on the homer. He's a heckuva hitter when he stays squared and holds the slot. Swings over the top when he opens too soon trying to pull. Hopefully that shot will remind him how he was over .300 for much of the season.

I think Corbs was hoping Murphy could come in and get strikeouts

Playing the righty, lefty, righty game is something we can't do. Because our bullpen is so thin. In fact we have zero dependable relievers left.

Why not steal. Backup catcher. Come on.

Keagan is slower than Gonzo. That should have been an infield hit.

Another concern. What if this goes 11-12. Who do we use from the pen Monday? Maldanado threw 48 pitches. If it goes that long, Murphy will go 30+.
