We hit Bumgardner pretty hard, especailly early. His strikeouts with runners in scoring position and us hitting the ball hard right at people sucked. I thought Hoz hit a homer or at least a gapper early with Cain on, Butler drove the ball well. We just didn't find the holes last night. The type of contact we made usually gets us 3-4 runs through 7 innings.
We need Ventura to have a strong outing tonight. If he can go 6 while giving up 2 or maybe 3 runs I like our chances against Peavy. So far in the postseason having our #1 starter getting shelled hasn't hurt our MOJO too much, but we've been carrying him with the bats.
