A great outing by Cornejo, who really had been struggling for quite some time. I didn’t get to see any of this game since I had to work, but this looks like it was probably a good one (and it only took two hours and four minutes).
And probably just as impressive is the emergence of Chris Mears, who’s saved three games in as many days, and since his debut on June 29, has pitched 7 2/3, given up two hits, no walks, and has struck out five. Not too bad for a guy who didn’t even make Baseball Prospectus’ 2003 publication.
