Huge hit for Cain. Love the guy. Heart and soul. Huge to have him back.

 

He ended up on third... why did they call it a double???

 

:angry :angry

 

He advanced to 3rd on the throw home.

 

So... how do they decide if it's a double and an advance on the throw, or a triple?

 

Is this like the time Doug Davis got called for a balk when he had Lance Berkman cold back in 2004, and it's just in the eye of the beholder?

People who talk baseball expansion only need to watch a guy like Dan Jennings. A guy who keeps getting job after job being terrible. Where are you going to get players from. He would pitch till he's 45.

It's a judgement call by the official scorer. But in his defense, there is no way Cain would have gotten to 3rd without the throw going home.

Well, if tonight is any indication, they can keep on letting someone else pitch the first inning or two for Freddy.

Or, Freddy has proven he can be an effective relief pitcher.

 

This was not a traditional relief outing. He knew he was getting the 3rd inning on. I don't think I would trust Peralta in a traditional relief role quite yet.

 

True, but still threw it real well coming out of the pen. I believe he’ll be one of our multi-inning pen arms at some point. This team working towards building a superpen for the playoffs.
