Foul Ball: Awful A.J. & Terrible Bullpens

Rant: Seriously MLB? There was only three games last night? Does the schedule makers know that there isn't other sports competing with baseball at the moment? World Cup is played in the morning, so baseball isn't competing for viewers at night. There shouldn't be Summer nights with only three baseball games. There's nothing else to watch in the Summer except baseball. I guess I should have expected this kind of schedule with this guy in charge of the league.

Oakland 4 Cincinnati 6, 10 Innings: Kevin Kouzmanoff tied the game in the ninth inning with a solo home run, then all hell broke out. The Reds homered three times in the top of tenth to take a 6-2 lead, then their bullpen barely could hold onto the lead. Cincinnati relievers gave up two runs in the bottom of the ninth and barely held onto the lead, but ultimately picked up the victory.

Washington 2 Kansas City 1: Stephen Strasburg isn't the only one who can pitch brilliantly for the Nationals. There is also old man Livan Hernandez. Livan pitched seven innings giving up eight hits, one run, no walks and striking out five. Michael Morse and Christian Guzman each hit solo home runs to provide Washington their only runs of the game.

Arizona 10 NY Yankees 4: A.J. Burnett was awful last night. Burnett started the night by giving up five runs alone in the first inning. In total, Burnett gave up nine hits and seven runs in only four innings of work. Justin Upton hit two home runs to go along with the four home runs hit by Arizona last night.
