Hopefully Chad can keep that pitch count low so we can use him a little on Sunday as well. However, this game is too important to worry about that right now. More so wishful thinking on my part.

Doubt they would use him twice this weekend.

Much improved defense. Dynamite pitching. (Too many walks but a minor trifle in the end.) Just enough offense. Great win!

Ted Silva calls a good game (I think he chooses the pitch sequences anyway) and when his guys execute, woo. That was an all-time gem by the guys on the mound.
