This was a wild one. Started off as a classic pitchers duel. Through six, we hadn’t gotten a guy to third base yet and they weren’t much better. Top of the seventh saw a single, steal, single to put up the first run of the game. Bottom of the inning led off with a two base error to Eric Davis. Two strikeouts later we rallied and scored three, mostly due to Morandini’s two run double. Put up two more in the eighth and needed every one of them. Top of the ninth Schilling couldn’t close it out and left the game with the bases load for *gulp* Wild Thing. Went pretty much as expected. Struck out the first batter, only needing one more, giving everyone false hope. Two walks and a passed ball later, sphincters are tightening again. Ground out to the shortstop mercifully ended the game for the win.
