Well Congrats Stoney. It was a nailbiter, but your cleanup hitter Realmuto 
got a 1-9 HR off of Gibson's card for the difference. He probably would have scored anyway because you hit two more singles in the inning. Gibson and Fien did their job, my offense just couldn't crack Sale. He's tough. I was hoping to hit that 1-13 HR on his card, that's about all you can do against that guy.
We left the bases juiced with Pollock and Posey. Just a lousy flyball was all we needed and with those two guys a multi run inning was possible. Alas, it was not to be. Left 9 on base, 3 in the third, 2 in the fourth, and 2 in the 9th. Sale only allowed 3 hits, walking 5. Hard to win with 3 hits.
We put a scare into you into the 9th with a two out rally, but Aybar couldn't get it done (no surprise there)
