This win tonight was even better than last night’s win because this felt decisive and deliberate. We hit on all cylinders! I’m so proud of the team for putting this win together tonight. So many guys to give props to. Adam Frazier, of course, but also Vinnie, Blanco again, and Ragans for pitching another beauty. I hope he can stay healthy. I’ll have to watch his pitch count. And our bullpen came through much better tonight, too. I think I’ve got guys in the correct roles; I need to get Schieber healthy so he can close for us on games like this. He should be back to throwing in the Seattle series coming up in two days.
