That was exciting! Getting a split in a 5-game series changes things dramatically.
--I thought Bieber's location wasn't as good as it was in the first playoff game, but he gutted it out and kept things close.
--Bullpen was amazing!
--Great hustle by Jose.
--We finally got some timely hitting at the end.
--I thought we were in a bad place after we stranded runners in the first and they hit the 2-run dinger.
--I was surprised we didn't have Straw running in the 9th. He would have scored on the play where Kwan hit the ball and an error was charged.
--I did like putting Gonzalez in motion in the 10th.
--I was getting a little worried about Clase's pitch count at the end, but he got it done.
--Milk's point earlier about the two bullpens is looming larger given what happened in today's game.
--That was fun!
