When the
back-up catcher in your best pitcher, that’s a problem.
Yes, Rob
Johnson, who is on the roster only until Josh Thole gets a few rehab games in,
tossed a one-two-three ninth inning in the 14-5 disaster in Toronto Friday
night.
Jon Niese
was not entirely impressive, allowing four homers and eight runs in just three
innings.
I suppose
that’s better than Manny Acosta who only gave up five runs in two innings.
On the
bright side, and I mean that in the most relative terms, Scott Hairston hit a
three-run home run.
The Friday
night massacre brings the Mobile Gnome of Defeat out of hiding on the road trip
to Philly, this time getting ready to explore the Philadelphia State House, also known as Independence Hall.

Love when a position player takes the mound. I'll admit to missing that, even though the TV was on, I guess I wasn't paying attention any more. With that score, who can blame me?
