One Win, One Loss

The West got one win and one loss on Thursday but for some reason I lost my post on the games. I had a cool post with witty comments and insights into the stats but I Left it at work without syncing my Evernote. Oh well, here’s a short post about the games.

Hyun-Jin Ryu dominated Atlanta on Thursday pitching 7 innings of shutout ball. He struck out 8 and only gave up 4 hits. Joc Pederson scored all the runs needed in the first at bat for the Dodgers by smashing a leadoff home rum but that wasn’t all the scoring. Max Muncy mashed a 3-run HR in the 2nd and Enrique Hernandez hit his own in the 6th. As I mentioned though, Pederson‘s was the On,y one needed.

Colorado on the other hand had to fight tooth and nail but fell short in Milwaukee. For the 3rd October game the Rockies only scored 2 runs and they weren’t enough this time. It took them until the 9th to finally break through on the Brewers pitching and the 2 runs tied up the game and sent things into extras. Even with the “bullpen game” of Milwaukee, they weren’t able to get on the board sooner. And then they couldn’t hold the Brewers in the 10th. There gonna have to get back to scoring more runs if they’re gonna start winning.

Pitcher of the Day: Hyun-Jin Ryu, LAD – 7 INN, 4 H, 0ER, 8K
Player of the Day: Max Muncy, LAD – 1–4, 1 R, 3 RBI, 3 BB
