TANAKA WAS GREAT FOR 6 INNINGS....WHEN HE WENT OUT FOR THE 7TH, TRAVIS SHAW LED OFF THE INNING BY PURPOSELY HITTING THE BALL THE OTHER WAY (AWAY FROM THE SHIFT) FOR A BASE HIT....(YOU SEE THAT JOE.G?...AGAINST THE FUCKING SHIFT-MADE IT LOOK EASY TOO)...THE NEXT GUY ALSO WENT THE OTHER WAY FOR A SINGLE.....I SAID TO MYSELF, "TANAKA HAS BEEN GREAT, BUT HE IS LOSING IT, PLEASE GET HANIGAN OUT SO HE CAN GO TO DELLIN AND GET OUT OF THIS INNING."......TANAKA APPEARS TO GIVE IT HIS ALL AND STRIKES OUT HANIGAN WITH A 94 MPH FASTBALL!...I'M ECSTATIC!...ONE PROBLEM, GIRARDI DOES NOT COME TO TAKE TANAKA OUT..... I START SHAKING IN MY BOOTS AS A LEFTY STEPS UP (BRADLEY JR.).....I CAN FEEL IT, AND SOON ENOUGH, BOOM, DOUBLE OFF THE WALL, TIE GAME 2-2, (WHICH MEANS THE GAME IS OVER FOR US)......JUST LIKE THOSE FOOTBALL TICKETS SAY WHEN YOU PLAY THEM, "TIES LOSE".............BUT THE THING THAT GOT ME REALLY NUTS WAS WATCHING GIRARDI WALK TO THE MOUND TO TAKE OUT TANAKA AFTER THE DAMAGE WAS DONE.....I FELT RAGE......DIDN'T HE SEE IT WAS TIME TO TAKE OUT TANAKA BEFORE THE CRUSHING DOUBLE?....WE HAVE DELLIN BETANCES AND ANDREW MILLER!...AND THEY BOTH WERE WELL RESTED!!!........AS IT TURNS OUT, DELLIN COMES IN 1 BATTER TOO LATE, WHICH MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WINNING AND LOSING THE GAME, PLUS A NICE BONUS!....WE PROBABLY WON'T USE DELLIN TODAY TO "REST" HIM, ALL FOR A LOSING EFFORT.....I'M AM GOING FUCKING CRAZY......IF I WAS A DOG, I WOULD SAY SHOOT ME....THIS IS TORTURE, BUT THE REAL BAD PART IS I DON'T SEE HOW WE CAN CHANGE IT WITH OUR FUCKED UP PHILOSOPHIES.
