Listerine
For the bitter taste this game left in my mouth.
We all knew it was coming. It couldn't last forever. Izzy couldn't have a perfect save record and an ERA under 1.00 all season. Plus, it was long and drawn-out so we could savor the moment.
I hate losses like this. Too many left on base (13 today), not enough production from the big guys (1 RBI from Walker, none from Pujols, Edmonds, or Sanders). Sloppy weather. Multiple leads given up. Walking in a run always puts me in a foul mood, but when it costs the game, well...let's say I wish I had some cookie dough.
So on to struggling Houston for the weekend. It would be nice to be clicking when the bean eaters come to town.
