Tweeners 3, Drillers 2
Donkeys fly, we won a series. Game one Wainwright gets no help again, 4th start in which we give him zero run support. V-Mart's single to lead off the 7th breaks up Romero's no-hitter, then he is immediately caught stealing. Tweeners lose 1-0.
Then we start using the "s" key rather than "enter" for Tweeners' batters, and we win 3 in a row. In game 2, Corey Hart smacked 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI as the NORM TWEENERS defeated the SHAWN DRILLERS 6 to 1 at AT&T Park. Hart provided much of the offense. He doubled in the 5th inning, clubbed a solo home run in the 8th inning and lost the ball over the fence for three runs in the 9th inning. NORM had 7 hits for the afternoon. The win went to Felix Hernandez(4-4) who allowed 1 run in 6 and 2/3 innings. The losing pitcher was Jeff Niemann(4-6). 'I just got in the box, looked for a pitch and swung,' Hart said. 'That's it'
We then swept the 9/1 doubleheader. In game 1, Center fielder Vernon Wells lofted one into the 'cheap seats' and had 3 RBI and Sergio Romo slammed the door on SHAWN as the NORM TWEENERS topped the SHAWN DRILLERS by a score of 6 to 5 at AT&T Park. NORM scored the winning runs in the 8th inning plating 2 runs. After an out was recorded, Luke Scott was the sparkplug when he drew a walk. One out later, Nick Swisher stepped in and he drew a walk. Pinch-hitter James Loney then tripled (on a 1-4/fly roll). Alex Gonzalez was next to bat, but he was a strikeout victim. Romo was great in relief and recorded his 3rd save. Felix Hernandez(5-4) got the win allowing 5 runs in 7 innings. Tim Lincecum(1-5) was given the loss. His ERA ballooned from 4.65 to 4.97 as he allowed 6 runs in 7 and 2/3 innings.
In the nightcap, Adam Wainwright whiffed 11 batters as the NORM TWEENERS outscored the SHAWN DRILLERS in 12 innings 6 to 4. Both teams were tied at 4 runs apiece after nine innings. NORM ended up winning it in the 12th inning. Ben Zobrist led off the inning for NORM when he doubled. Jose Tabata came next and he drew a walk. Nick Swisher then laid down a sacrifice bunt. Shane Victorino followed next and he banged out a single. The score went back-and-forth with the lead changing 5 times. The victory went to Sergio Romo(2-3) who went 1 inning, allowing no runs. Luke Gregerson recorded the save, his 2nd. Jon Rauch(2-1) absorbed the loss in relief.
Tweeners' offense reverts to form in game 5 as we get 4 hits and lose 2-1. Mad-Bum pitches well (again) and runs his record to 1-7.
