High level stuff.
Observed:
Tomlin was really tough, as Doc predicted. I think his secred is rhythm. He gets the ball and fires it back, right now. I'll swear that in the second inning, with two strikes on Ackley, somebody yelled at Dustin to step out and ice Tomlin a bit. Was it just me? I can't recall watching a pitcher work more quickly in a long time. I loved it.
Felix threw 93, no worries. Especially did it against lefties, when he was throwing that tailing heater on the outside edge. Inside against them, it looked like he was in the 91 range. Did we just see a bunch of those pitches in his first couple of starts....and no outside heat?
I thought Saunders was fooled on both his hits, but managed to keep the bat head back long enough to flick them into RF. He looked open and ahead on both of them. I wasn't sure if I should be encouraged or just assume it was more of the same.
I missed Figgins tater the other night. It hasn't changed my incredibly dismal opinion of his bat skills. Wells can still play LF, can't he. Is he still breathing? Carp hasn't hit in Tacoma...but I'm so ready to see him in LF, too.
Felix......sheeeeeeeeesh!
We're OK...but a little Dr. Longball would go a long way to an early healthy recovery.
