Wahoos 5, Warpigs 2

Cards and dice.
Vindictive, heartless dice.

First 5 games at The BallPork

Game 1 - Wahoos win 4-2. Ender Inciarte leads off the game with a homer. The Pigs get 3 hits in that 1st inning. Their next hit came in the 8th inning. Justin Verlander gets the win.

Game 2 - Wahoos win 8-1. The first 8 batters in the top of the 3rd inning reach base for the Wahoos. Good thing this is a pitcher's park. Marco Estrada gets the win.

Game 3 - Warpigs win 4-3. This should have been another Wahoo win. Verlander had a no-hitter thru 7 innings. Amazingly, he lost the no-hit bid to a pinch hit homer by Francisco Liriano leading off the 8th. A failed squeeze bunt attempt later in the inning kept the Wahoos on top 2-1. They added an unearned run the next inning and led 3-1 going to the bottom of the 9th. With 2 outs and 2 on, Zach Britton was called on to get the last out. Yasmany Tomas pinch hit and blasted a 3-run, walk off homer. Pigs win a game!

Game 4 - Warpigs win 6-5. The Warpigs yanked shitty Carlos Rodon from the game in the 4th. The Wahoos waited until the 5th to pull shitty Mike Foltynewicz. That was the difference as the Pigs hung on. Raisel Iglesias earned his 20th save.

Game 5 - Wahoos win 2-0. The game was scoreless going to the 9th when Brandon Crawford singled home both Wahoo runs. Jake Arrieta and company shut down the Warpigs on 5 singles.

Game 6 - Wahoos win 7-4. The Warpigs led 4-2 going to the bottom of the 8th when the Hoos hammered 2 homers, 2 doubles, and 2 singles in the first 7 batters of the inning. I hate this park.

Game 7 - Wahoos win 10-1. No, I fucking hate this park. This time it was the 5th inning when the Wahoos reached base with 7 straight batters. But the big story of this game was Weekend at Bernies, who struck out 19, missing the chance at the 20th when the Pigs were nailed trying to steal 3rd to end the game. "I should have just held onto the ball," said dejected catcher Cameron Rupp. "It didn't dawn on me until it was too late that maybe he was trying to get thrown out so my dead pitcher couldn't strike out 20. I'm so depressed now I think I'll go out boating tonight."
