Well, I'm still hanging on. Jokers went up in the third game. In the fourth, I went up early and Michalak was lifted in the third inning for an injury. Darenbourg came on and redeemed himself from the previous game by keeping us in it until the end of the fourth. At that point, the Lowe-Fassaro Fence gave up only one run in the final four innings.
I now go back home for the one game scramble to get to the Series. Having Halama as starter is not as bad as it may sound. I've had many game 5's where I've $7mil+ S* pitcher perfectly situated and still fail to win. Halama has been with me off and on since my first two 2001 teams back in my debut in Stratomatic back in January 2006. Besides, I only need him until the fifth inning. What is good about my team is they are well rounded. I don't have to worry about one or two main hitters carrying my team. There are new heroes every night. We have to play our game in our park.
