Basically what happened is that the game was going fine until the end when Arizona ran out of pitchers and had to put Mark Grace, their first baseman in to pitch. He gave up 53 runs, 51 of them earned.

Dwolfson20 · 04-22-2003, 01:42 AM

Ouch... doesn't look too good for old Gracey's morale. He's certainly no Jose Canseco, anyway.

Jazzmosis · 08-25-2004, 03:31 PM

On the other hand, he DID strike out two batters.
