Holy Phuck!
We were down 13-2 after 3 innings, and won this game by 8 runs. 25-17 final. We got 11 in the 5th and 10 in the 9th. I'm afraid to look at my pitching fatigue now.

Actually the fatigue did not change much more than expected as only 3 guys pitched. What happened was that with the bullpen so short I set bullpen on the starter Thurmond to 1, and they left him in to allow 12 hits and 9 walks in 3,2 innings. Newcomer Terry Mathews then went 3.1, and Alcala went the final 2 innings and picked up the win.
Check the box score, there's WAY too much here to try and give an account of the game.
