I'm Done Sticking Up For the Offense

The offense blows...

I'm pretty fed up sticking up for them at this point.

Ben Francisco gets it going in the first inning with a two run blast, so I'm starting to think, okay we're finally starting to get those hits falling in. Cause last night, if you read, I thought he got a few good rips in there.

Yet.. After that there wasn't much.

Casey Blake went deep in the 6th to tie the game up, but guess what.. There wasn't much after that. Blake had the three hits, including a ninth inning double. But aside from the Grady hit in the first and the Francisco homer that same inning, there was SQUAT!

10 strikeouts at the hands of JORGE DE LA ROSA?!

That is unacceptable. This team has killed the guy in the past, and for some reason, 10 strikeouts?

The pitching was no better. I'll go with Sowers and the 3 earned.. But I don't know.. I'm still not sold on him.. Kobayashi had his bad day this time out.

Just awful baseball played this series. This team just seems to be toying with us at this point..

I'm really getting upset at the faith I'm investing in them. I'm not giving up, but I'm getting real frustrated watching them.

Tomorrow we go out to LA to face the Dodgers. They've just lost two starting pitchers, so Kuroda won't be the guy going on Saturday. However, we get to see the young stud Clayton Kershaw tomorrow against Clifford Red Lee.
