Will Wins It!

Before the bottom of the ninth today, with the score tied 2-2, I predicted William would win it. I wasn't right then and I wasn't right yet when he came up in the eleventh. But after a two out single by pinch hitting pitcher Clayton Richard in the 13th inning, Venable came through. Will laced a single to left and Clay Dick raced around as de facto left fielder Howie Kendrick bobbled the ball and threw wide to the first base side. Win! And guess what else- we aren't in last place anymore!

  1. "Clay Dick" wins the 2012 "Nickname That I Never Want To Have" award. But I forgot that he can swing the bat, was glad to see him get on base as a pinch hitter, and then burn it around third for the win. Dude's an athlete!

  2. We've been calling him Clay Dick over at gaslampball.com since we got him so I can't take credit. You should get an account over there; it's the greatest blog and community ever. EVER.
