There's aggressiveness, then there's stupidity. As soon as I saw him round second I knew he was dead meat.

To be fair, there was one out. But I agree in principle.

Normally, on a hit-and-run, the guy can make it to 3rd. But he hesitated, for some reason, as he was approaching 2nd. That cost him. And us.

We have left a lot of runs on the table.

That is never good.

I'll be completely honest -- I didn't even realize it was a hit and run. (I have my TV on mute because the whistling gives me a headache so if the announcer said anything I missed it.) Given his position when Mangum scooped the ball, I assumed it was not.

Those stranded bases loaded and baserunning gaffes loom large when you put two men on with no outs.

HBP, walk, wild pitch.

This is how you give games away. Still, big strike out with runner on third. 3-3. Going to the bottom of the 6th.

We have been the clearly better team tonight and we need to stop shooting ourselves in the foot starting five innings ago.

Ump is suddenly giving Gordon an extra two inches around the plate. A low one to Infante. A fairly outside one to Scott.

I've tried to be patient but what the hell are some of these swings.
