Foul Ball: Extras

Philadelphia 2, Colorado 1: The Rockies had a chance to take the lead in the bottom of the ninth inning. Seth Smith lead off with a double. The Rockies sluggers Carlos Gonzalez and Troy Tulowitzki struck out. Jason Giambi pinch hit and he struck out to end the game. This is my reaction to the Rockies. Jesus didn't save you last night. (@Justin: Remind me to tell you the story about the Rockies and their affiliation with "God")

Boston 1, Detroit 0: Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit an RBI double in the eighth inning to drive in the only run of the ballgame. Salty hit that pitch off of Daniel Schlereth. Stink Jr. was obviously devastated by CBS' decision not to pick up his father's show.

Cincinnati 0, Pittsburgh 5: During the off-season Pittsburgh pitcher Charlie Morton changed his delivery to mimic Roy Halladay. The change has worked for Morton so far as he is 5-1 on the year with with a 1.32 WHIP and 2.62 ERA. Morton pitched a complete game against the Reds giving up no runs and five hits. Pedro Alvarez and Andrew McCutchen drove in the only runs on the night for the Pirates via home runs.


St. Louis 5, Houston 1: Tony Larussa impersonator Kyle Lohse went eight inning giving up six hits and one run against the pathetic Astros. The Cards did all their damage against the Astros in the third inning with a four-run inning. Jon Jay drove in two of those runs that inning along with RBIs from Albert Pujols and Allen Craig.

Chicago 1, Cleveland 0: There was something special about looking at the boxscore and seeing that Jake Peavy threw a shutout. Peavy was once a dominate pitcher in San Diego who's career was derailed by injuries. So yes, it was special seeing that in only his second start of the year Jake Peavy pitched a complete game shutout. Peavy only allowed three base runners on the evening and struck out eight. The Good Guys White Sox only run of the night came off a Adam Dunn sac fly in the first inning.

Baltimore 1, New York 4, 15 Innings: Boring first nine innings and then Mariano Rivera blew the save in the ninth when he gave up the game-tying run to Vlad Gurrero on a sac fly. Then the next five innings were boring as both the Yankees and Orioles bullpens held down the fort. And then Mike Gonzalez happened. Gonzalez gave up a two-run triple to Robinson Cano in the 15th inning and that's all what she wrote for the Orioles.

Arizona 5, Atlanta 4, 11 Innings: When you give up the game-tying run on a wild pitch, like the Braves did, you're probably going to lose. And that's exactly what happened to the Braves. The Braves in fact actually blew two leads, once in the 11th inning when Craig Kimbral gave up singles to Kelly Johnson and Justin Upton which gave the Diamondbacks the victory.

Oakland 3, Minnesota 4, 10 Innings: Something called Trevor Plouffe drove in three runs on the night including the game-winning run in the tenth inning. Plouffe hit a sac fly in the tenth off of Brian Fuentes to give Minnesota the rare victory.

Los Angeles 5, San Francisco 8: This game was a hot mess for the Giants. Mark DeRosa injured himself while batting, which was such a bizarre injury that I can't even explain it. Brian Wilson blew the save in the eighth inning. Yes, eighth inning. Aaron Rowand then hurt himself running to first base and had to leave in the ninth. Thankfully for the sakes of the Giants, Cody Ross belted a three-run home run with two-outs in the ninth to give the Giants the victory.
