Having trouble in the 5th.  How's he looking?  Making good pitches?  Flummuxed by the error?  What?

He looks fine. Errors killed him. And, that wasn't a wild pitch... the ball went right between Munson's legs.

Great, thanks.  Getting out of that mess with only two runs scored saved the game (assuming they can put some wood on Morris).

Kid seems to be cut from the same unflappable cloth as Oswalt (gum throwing excepted).

Springer just relieved Buckholz. What's the deal? Why didn't he go more than 3 innings? I assumed he'd go as far as possible once Backe left.

Probably because he has a certain amount of work he does in between starts and he has one on Sunday.

Just a guess, but he came in the game off his schedule and they may want him to start again in a few days.

Probably keeping him available for another day, or his next start.  Oswalt will be given a lot of rope tonight, I suspect.  Not that that's usually a problem.

Plus they still have Nieve as the other long reliever out of the pen if needed for game 2.

It means pravata is suffering from withdrawals because of 2 days of no baseball.

Buchholz looks fine. In the 5th when they scored their runs...they were on soft pop ups that just found seams. He pitched exactly how he wanted to.

I got home and watched the 'wild pitch' again... wasn't exactly between his legs. Just an awful, awful play by Munson. He did a back handed peck at the ball, didn't move his body a bit. I hope shitzilla is taking notes.

That's two posts today where the word "peck" was used to describe defense:

I'm suspecting a conspiracy.

My old man called it something different when I was playing, but I thought pravata's description was perfect.
