Didn't see a thread.

Santana got rocked. Yanks beat the Mets 15-0.
Matt Cain is now 9-1. Complete game. 1 ER, 9 K's. ERA a tidy 2.39.
Billingsley also won his 9th. Now 9-3. 7 innings, 2 ER.
BJ Upton stole 2 bases for the third consecutive day.
Jered Weaver-complete game 5 hit shutout. Now 7-2 2.08 ERA.
Mauer with a ho-hum 3-5. Batting average at .414.

What else is going on?

Trevor Hoffman finally blew a save. In a game that the Brewers were trying not to get swept in and taking a tie into the 9th, I don't know what the **** he was doing out there, but I guess Macha knows more than I do...

Looks like the Giants will have back to back Cy Youngs. Cain was nasty today.

Brian Bannister went 8 giving up only an unearned run to give KC their first three game sweept of the season. Callespo ups his BA to .318 after knocking in a couple on a triple.

Blew the game, but that isn't a blown save. As for why he was in, most managers use their closer in a tie game at home, since there can't be a save situation if it's tied. Seems to fail more often than not.

How is a tie a save opportunity?

right, i meant "Loss."

And i know closers get used in the 9th at home like that, but I've never seen it pay off either.

I am sure Macha didn't care about the streak that Hoffman had with scoreless innings. It was a tie game and why not toss our best guy out there to hold them, unfortunately it didn't work that way, but I do agree with Macha to put him out there.

I was at that game, got some pics just of his back, but they are pretty good pics. Cain was just dealing though and got some pretty good help from the offense Sandoval home-run and then Nate hits an amazing inside the park home-run with no errors on the play!

Callaspo's is a huge surprise this year. Look what he's done in the last week...batted .580 w/ 2HR's 3B and 8RBI's and a grandslam in the last 7 games. He's also got a 8 game hitting streak and has had atleast 2 hits in 6 of those games.

He was pretty good last year when he wasn't having legal issues, but yea this year he's really taken off.
