Sub-optimal beginning to the bottom of the inning. Everybody's command seems terrible up here in Denver.
-
Wade, Josh's performance yesterday was not meant as an example of what to do.
-
Thank God for the infield fly rule.

2013 will never die.

The don't let the pitcher catch thing is so foolish.

Kind of? That's an "official scorer called it a hit" kind of assessment.

When Miley was one pitch away from walking the first three batters of the game, I would have never thought he would survive five innings and only allow one run. Nice recovery.
