Re: Crappy Closers tribute
Gagne strikes again, this time I finally got help from a blown save...as the Brewers took a 3-1 lead in the 10th, in comes Gagne, and promptly gives up back to back solo HR's with no outs, to Encarnacion and Bako (not exactly power hitters), then he follows with a walk, before leaving the game...
only thing in his defense, and the announcers said it before he ever threw the 1st pitch, this was his 4th day in a row to pitch...and thats alot to ask of a guy, even if only 1 inning each day...the warming up and the importance of each pitch, make it tiresome on a guy.....and usually 3 in a row is about as much as you will see....but Brewers had the lead in 3 close games, so he had saved each.....but not today
