Well, after he lost a homer to the wind yesterday and his homer today, it seems Millar has rediscovered his power. Whew. I had to miss the bottom of the 7th inning, thanks to the phenomenon known as “going to work”, so I missed the 7-run inning. Feels like I’ve seen very few blowouts this year, actually.
Wakefield’s knuckler looked average today, so it was a good thing he faced the crap lineup that Oakland fielded. Even Eric Chavez looked pretty ordinary out there.
Danny Haren is actually pretty good for a 1-5 pitcher, and certainly he was the only St Louis pitcher that even made any sort of impact in the World Series. But that beaning of Manny looked PAINFUL.
