Another 10 runners LOB.

Need more 2 out steals, that way there won’t be anymore runners left on base.

Howell

Again, Howell came in in a crucial situation and did his job efficiently and nearly perfectly. The infield single was simply a high hopper up the middle that was well placed, and then with 1st and 3rd and a 2 run lead he got an easy pop-out from Uggla and a simple fly ball from Gonzalez.

In the next inning, he struck out the first two batters, but Amazega got on due to a wild pitch 3rd strike. So he induced two ground ball outs to end that inning.

He then started the 8th getting Hermida to ground out and was relieved. Except for the wild pitch, which Amazega swung at, every pitch was around the plate, on the corners, and nobody really got a good swing. It was a joy to watch.
