Carlos Zambrano pinch hits in the tenth and the winning run scores as a result of his at bat! It has been a crazy road trip....may as well end it with our ace pitcher putting the ball in play as a hitter. It is the only thing close to a win our starting staff can be credited with during this road trip.
Derek Lee, Ryan Theriot, and Henry Blanco all had multiple hits today. Again our starting pitcher didn't see the sixth inning. At least Marquis left us with a lead, which Michael Wuertz promptly destroyed.
Lou used all thirteen position players by the eighth inning, forcing him to pinch hit Zambrano in the tenth. He used six pitchers, not counting Zambrano hitting, meaning twenty of the twenty five active players saw time in this game.
Whatever it takes might become the motto for this team. This win helps us avoid our first series sweep of the season and lets us leave this road trip 4-2.
