Default It's getting ugly...

Not one but two costly baserunning mistakes in scoring position. Not exactly a way to beat Lackey, especially when he's starting to look somewhat vulnerable..

John Lackey now 2-0 with a 0.75 ERA

Dan Haren 0-2 with a 0.69


and that my friends proves which club is doing the necessary little things to win.

Next time someone brings up W-L as a method to rate pitchers I will show them this.

Yea, one which won't look like deer in headlights when they actually do reach base.
A bit of dignity salvaged last night, thanks to the relief corps....

On that same note, anyone else notice how great Piazza has come out of the gate?

Almost like Frank Thomas playing his old team, except, not quite. Almost LA. I read in the LA Times that Piazza wanted to sign with the Angels a year ago, and would have signed a $500,000 contract to do so, but the Angels declined and he went to San Diego.
