STUDS: Adam Wainwright (Misfits) continued the trend of "aces who pitch good and also hit good too," striking out 8 and allowing 3 earned runs in 7.2 innings for a win, and also going 3 for 3 with a double, a run and 2 RBIs. Paul Goldschmidt (Test. Braun) had a 2-run homer, a single and a steal as the Diamondbacks kept the Dodgers from clinching the NL West for at least another day. Charlie Morton (SSS) struck out 9 and allowed one run in 8 innings for a no-decision, as the Pirates bullpen couldn't hold the lead. Jay Bruce (Gonzo) continued his torrid week by showing the good possibilities of extra-inning games: he had 3 doubles and 3 RBIs. Yasiel Puig (LGM) homered and doubled.

Did someone say Fat Albert? Or was it Matt Albers?
Oh, sorry, that was Matt Adams. Hey hey hey! |
DUDS: Other Reds showed the bad possibilities of extra-inning games: Brandon Phillips (Fresh Fish) was 0 for 7 with 7 men left on base; not to be outdone, Ryan Ludwick (Fresh Fish) was 0 for 6 with an RBI and 9 left on base. Oh, and this was mostly against the Astros' historically bad bullpen. Sergio Romo (Test. Braun) blew a save (against the Mets, so it's doubly horrible), allowing 2 earned runs in 0.1 innings and taking the loss. Freddie Freeman (Misfits) was 0 for 4 with an error.
Matt Adams (Arb. Losers) was 0 for 3 with an error before leaving with an injury, further depleting the Losers and Cardinals at first base.
