September 10 - Rhinos win 9-6. The Rhinos were rolling angry. Having lost 8 straight to the Warpigs this season, they got mad and took it out on Jacob deGrom. Six different Rhinos homered - 5 of them before deGrom could exit the field. The Pigs tried to make it interesting when, with almost all the starters having already exited, the subs scored 4 in the bottom of the 9th. Jose Pirela pinch hit a 3-run triple. Oh, and Judge homered again, giving him 7 in 4 games and 43 in 97 games.

September 11 - Warpigs win 3-2 in 16 innings. For the second time this season, the Pigs and Rhinos take 16 innings to decide a game. Earlier this year, the Pigs won a 1-0 game in 16. With Gerritt Cole in control and the Pigs using up more valuable Pigpen innings, the two teams traded out after out after out. In the top of the 16th, Teoscar Hernandez went deep, giving the Rhinos a 2-1 lead. With an extremely tired Cole still on the mound, the Pigs started the inning with two quick outs, bringing up Aaron Judge. Visibly trembling on the mound, both out of fear and the fact that he had thrown 273 pitches, Cole walked Judge. The roll was 1-7; both 1-8 & 1-9 were homers. The steady and reliable Joe Mauer was due, but steady and reliable gave way to someone with N-power just in case we finally rolled 6-9. Jeremy Hazelbaker was called on. He rolled 6-9. Two run, walk off homer. Pigs win! Pigs win! Pigs win! Cole officially went 15.2 innings in the complete game loss, allowing 10 hits and 10 walks while striking out 13.

Also, for the record, the Pigs have, in 98 games, played 10 extra inning games, including games of 15-innings, 16-innings (twice), and 25-innings. Save the Pigs for the end of the season and you might get yourself a forfeit or two. Or even better, a mandatory complete game from Adam Wainwright.
