Warpigs at Wahoos

Wahoos sweep a 3-game set at The Reservation.

Game 1 - Wahoos 7, Warpigs 3 - Aramis Ramirez hit a solo HR in the 4th, and two batters later Vernon Wells added a 3-run shot. That was all Gil Meche needed. Josh Beckett took the loss.

Game 2 - Wahoos 6, Warpigs 1 - Wade Davis lost the shutout on a 9th inning, clutch single, but he still got the complete game win, striking out 12.

Game 3 - Wahoos 4, Warpigs 3 - Why alcohol was invented: After Colby Rasmus hit a 2-run single in the top of the 9th inning to tie the game at 3, the Wahoo's bottom of the 9th went like this:
1. (Aaron Laffey pitching) Milton Bradley reaches on a ballpark single.
2. Vernon Wells attempts a hit and run, but rolls a strikeout. Because he is a "C" hit and run guy, he misses the pitch.
3. Bradley (who is not a *) needed a 6 to be running with a good lead. Naturally, he got it. But still, the Laffey/Olivo battery is a -5, s0 it was 1-8 to steal second. Bradley rolled the 3. The T-rating was 1-10. Overthrow. Runner is on third now. (A less patient, less mature man than myself would be throwing dice by now. Or a pen.)
4. Wells grounds out with the runner holding. 1 down.
5. Lastings Milledge pinch hits for Salty, and is intentionally walked.
6. Drew Stubbs hits for Jimmy Rollins and rolls a flyB, which is a single due to the outfield playing in. Game over.

The Wahoos reach the May 1 deadline with more than an hour to spare.
