Rohling (or, "Brew Crew on the BBQ, Part II"!)

Who are these kids, exactly? One day, Uribe and Bowker do nothing; the next day, they go back-to-back for HRs. One day, Sandoval is the 3B to replace, but over the last several days Ryan Rohlinger has hit 9th Inning HRs to give us the lead, and today to win the game.

I am absolutely speechless.

FINAL
MIL - 6
S.F. - 8

The Boys Who Showed Up: Uribe, Bowker, Rohlinger

P.S.-> Misch's last multi-run inning gaffe finally caught someone's attention: he's been optioned to Fresno, along with his partner-in-crime from the last debacle Ron Ray.

As Good As A Day Off.

As usual, Cain did extremely well only to have the team keep from producing. Ron Ray let five runs pass in the fourth inning, and Misch gave up three in the sixth. Why were they kept in for those innings, and the bullpen warming only after the damage was complete? I think Bochy may have made a number of decisions already. Also, Burriss made two errors in that sixth inning, and it was hugely surprising.

The only reason I kept listening (enough to hear that Aurilia was involved in a 3-run sixth to counter the Rockies, and Rohlinger hit his second ninth-inning HR in as many games) was because of Jon Miller. So, before I forget to encourage you, please don't forget to buy your tickets for the 8/7 bobblehead giveaway for Jon! :)

One piece of information worth considering: We haven't had a day off yet. In other words, I'm a little exhausted for them, so they must be as well.
