Congrats KD. I knew when I lost Gm 5 that you had a great shot to win last night, nice job. I may have to look for another pitching option instead of Wood now that we have a 7-gm series in the initial round....
How did you do it? You busted up my starting pitching (combined ERA of about 6.50 and WHIP 1.50), and you limited Thome/Bautista to 3 hits and 1 HR in 39 ABs. That's a BA under .100 folks, for 2 of the MVP-caliber hitter cards in this deck, and facing RHs almost exclusively. :shock:
And beyond crushing my SPs, you got 10 hits & 5 BBs off of Thatcher & Thornton in 7.1 innings of relief work. Zumaya was my only arm that showed up at all in our series.
I may have not helped myself by deciding to pitch Hudson vs. Felix, I might have been better served giving up on Gm 5, pitching Wood there in your park, and then matching up Huddy against you in Gm 6 at my park, but hard to say what would have worked, if anything.
Congrats & good luck!
