Tweeners 2, Killer Bees 2

4 at the Hooverdome to finish our home schedule.  Only 3 left at the Bees Nest and we can mercifully lay this season to rest.  Still a chance to lose 90 games and get a decent draft spot.

9/12 – Bees 8, Tweeners 6.  Bees take an early 4-1 lead, Tweeners go ahead 6-4 on a Rosario grand slam, but then Milone and Hanrahan (L, BS) surrender 4 in the 7th.  Rafael Soriano pitches 5 scoreless innings of relief to pick up the win.

9/13 – Tweeners 4, Bees 1.  Iwakuma and friends shut down the Bees, Romo logs his 32nd save.  In game #157, Pablo Sandoval blasts his 5th home run of the season.  I guess it's a bit late for him to heat up and lead us to glory.

9/14 – Tweeners 11, Bees 0.  Chris Tillman's card hits the floor after 6 scoreless innings, and the bullpen completes the shutout.  Homers for Rosario and Reynolds and 2 errors by Freddie Freeman lead the Tweeners attack.

9/15 – Bees 5, Tweeners 2.  On Fan Appreciation Day, we designated Yasmani Grandal as the catcher, Victor Martinez as acting manager, and literally pulled names out of a hat to create a lineup and batting order.  The result was decent defense (other than Mark Reynolds at 3B), but the questionable offense began with Jose Tabata the DH leading off.  Ervin Santana had little trouble earning the complete game victory.
