I think your assessment is pretty accurate. Without Garnet and Powe the Celt's clearly did not have enough talent to rotate. They almost lost to Chicago because they did not have the legs. I think they did well to get this far. Hope Powe and Garnet come back healthy and ready to go. They could have a shot at one more tittle.
Kottaras in from the pen to pinch run for Tek. Kottaras has younger legs (don't know how much faster he is than Tek). Tek is known as a good base runner. My guess is Kottaras is a little faster.
Balentin was on first. The batter Johnson, bunted and was out 2-3. But Balentine, who ran to second, started to walk back to 1st thinking the bunt was foul. Bailey threw the ball to Green at 2nd who tagged Balentin out to end the inning.
Regrettably. I think I heard Roberts say last night that Rocco has to get his timing back. He apparently has not logged enough at bats in consecutive games to do so. Roberts said it, not me.
I fell asleep last night and missed Lugo getting pulled. Is he actually injured again? Just when he was starting to produce at the plate. Unbelievable.
