Notice he didn't tie a career-high of three.

What the hell?

Jones with some putrid baserunning this inning.

Runner still in scoring position.

Look, I know that unearned runs show up on a pitcher's stat sheet. They are subtracted because they were not the responsibility of the pitcher. They represent runs scored that were not the pitcher's fault and were the

result of defensive errors committed behind him and not due to the pitcher allowing hits. The runs are tallied and I said as much. If the pitcher was responsible for them, why are they subtracted from his ERA? Why even

make a distinction between the two? It's not semantics. They are subtracted from his ERA for a reason; they were not his fault.

It's semantics because you are using funny definitions of "responsible" and "count." And using "fault" more or less interchangeably with the two. I don't think anyone disagrees that an unearned run shouldn't be "held against" (as in, if there are a whole bunch of errors that should have been easy plays and because of those errors runs scored, I don't think so and so had a poor pitching performance) a pitcher. But that isn't what you are saying.

Very odd night all the way around.

[WEAVERMAN]

Should have been two runs, but we'll take it.

[mrbig1]

Damn, Mark with 4 RBI tonight.

[ArtVanDelay]

Our offense it better than yours.

[Chavez Ravine]

Didn't someone argue that Trumbo was coming back to earth?

[WEAVERMAN]

Wang will be off KC by May.

[Aristotelian]

Has Adam Jones ever had 3 walks in a game?

[NashLumber]

A ball bounces off of 2B for a hit and a ball hits the lip of the grass and bounces back to the catcher. It's been that kind of a game.
