Well they finally broke the streak. Getting that first one out of the way will hopefully go a long way towards turning this ship around. It was nerve wracking to see Todd Jones come in and attempt to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, but he got the job done.
Bonderman actually looked pretty good, although we need more innings out of him (and all the starters, for that matter). But Inge is still leading the team in Home Runs (which is a bad sign, by the way), and 1-7 is just slightly better than 0-7. There is a long way to go to dig out of this hole.
Here’s hoping Wakefield’s knuckleball isn’t on tomorrow. I read a quote somewhere that trying to hit a knuckleball was like trying to catch a butterfly with hiccups between a pair of chop sticks.
