Rank Relief: Recording no outs in bottom of the 9th is bad

Adam Laroche started the damage off in the 9th

Bobby Parnell has a decent chance to make the All-Star game this year.  Not racking up the saves on a bad team but pitching well.  He actually had a chance tonight and couldn’t do it.  He came in with a standard one run lead to protect.  He got no people out.  He also looks a bit awkward as he starts to go cover first.  Bad news Bobby – that grounder found the hole and scored the game tying run.  Details here:

RR 6.4 - 4

Double, wild pitch, single, double, walk, game over.  Come back strong Bobby, we’re rooting for you.

Note:  I know he recorded an out technically but since it was the game winning sacrifice, I’m going to go ahead and not count it this time.
