Playoffs Week 2: Tuesday's report

FBLG's top performer of the day doesn't even play in the
National League anymore.

STUDS: Alfonso Soriano (Rookies) hit a 3-run homer, a 2-run homer and an RBI single. He also scored 3 runs. Paul Goldschmidt (Braun) singled, tied the game in the ninth inning with a solo homer and won the game in the 11th inning with a solo homer.

DUDS: Eric Stults (Braun) had a classic "soft-tossing lefty blowup game." He lasted 4.2 innings and allowed 11 hits, 3 walks and 5 runs. He also failed to strike anyone out. Good thing he singled and scored in the no-decision. Matt Harvey (Muumuu) allowed 4 runs and struck out 3 in a 6-inning loss to the Dodgers. Carlos Gomez (Rookies) went 1 for 3 with an error. Starling Marte (PYB) went 0 for 4 with 3 Ks, a steal and a costly error. He dropped a fly ball in the ninth inning and the Pirates leading by 1. The runner ended up scoring, and the Pirates lost in 14 innings.
