Wow, Marmol hung two sliders there that should have been sent to Bernie's slide.

 

just because they end up in the middle of the plate doesn't mean they're easy to hit.

9th inning homer to take the lead and struck out their two best hitters to end the game.

 

i <3 baseball (for now)

[JimSorgi]

I'm thinking this Marmol kid is pretty good.

[Careless]

They appear to be having fun

[anabiono]

i was halfway right...i thought they would go up 6-5...but i also thought they would give it right back...

 

i will take it though!

[CubInOK]

I only watched like the last 3 innings, but I still had a heart attack.

[dew1679666265]

I'm thinking this Marmol kid is pretty good.

 

I think he might stick in the majors for a little bit.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Now Im no expert on the subject, but I do believer that what we just saw is what a closer is supposed to do.

[FergieJ31]

Nice payback for yesterday. Let's take the series tomorrow.

 

(and Aramis Fan, wow that is the fastest turnaround time ever, from Aramabomb to Aramabomb sig.)
