I’m actually surprised I’m still awake. 1:12 am here.

Hopefully I don’t have to do anything tricky tomorrow at work. :)

That I got ready for bed and now have my laptop on the covers with me. Just need to shut it down and set it on the nightstand when I am ready to crash.

We could let him bat or use Tron in the 9th. I want to see if Broxton can drive one.

The save situation is locked in, even if the Dodgers scored 100, as long as Broxton finishes the game

by Eric Stephen on Oct 7, 2009 10:23 PM PDT up reply actions  

He would because he was in the game before the score changed

Somone got a save in the 30-3 Rangers win over the Orioles.

by Ivdown on Oct 7, 2009 10:23 PM PDT up reply actions  

i believe that was a 3 inning save tho

by insomniacslounge on Oct 7, 2009 10:24 PM PDT up reply actions  

Yeah it was

But everything was right for him to get that save (pitched the last 3 innings when they had a lead of 3 or less runs).

by Ivdown on Oct 7, 2009 10:25 PM PDT up reply actions  

Lead doesn’t matter, by rule, for a 3-inning save

by Eric Stephen on Oct 7, 2009 10:27 PM PDT up reply actions  

Oh I thought the 3 run rule was still in effect no matter what the inning.

by Ivdown on Oct 7, 2009 10:27 PM PDT up reply actions  

yeah he would

He entered the game in a save situation

Let’s hope we stay on the 20th most likely final score of 5-2 LAN winning.
