Thoughts from the game: Great crowd and a great game with an ending that wasn't what we wanted. JoeB, I thought the pitch to LaPorta was a good one, but like the great player he is, he went down and got it. To me, the play that sent us off-kilter was the walk and so-called wild pitch. Everyone, including Prado, thought the umpire had signaled a balk and that would have nullified the pitch. It looked screwy and I think the umpire did the equivalent of swallowing his whistle. I've seen coaches that want their kids to be vocal like Prado and I've seen others who wanted less rah-rah and more focus on the game like Cardieri (though his later teams were more vocal than they were in the '90s). Neither system is wrong. But when things go south, a change always seems to help. Someone please let the support staff know that if you get 2,400 for a game, you need more portapotties.
