1-2-3 innings > anything.

I'll take a solo HR in exchange for 7 outs.

Six outs to go. I assume some will go to Diaz, but will we see anyone else before him?

Maton? Butto?

I don't know if I agree with this one. I don't think a lot of Police stuff has aged well.

Looks like they're going to ask for six outs from Diaz.

Diaz? in the 8th with a 5-run lead?

Well, they're going to have to go through the top of the lineup here after Pages.

And Pages has been Babe Ruth today.

It' a shame that Mendoza uses his closer to get 6 out with a 5 runs lead, because he has so few bullpen arms he trusts. I know we have to win tonight, but a five run lead.

Seems like Butto would be a goo d option. If all went well he could close out the game.

The dye is cast, so hopefully Diaz can make short work of the Dodgers with=out undo stress on his arm or my nerves.

How many do we have to score here to feel comfortable pulling Diaz.

17?
