Eight pitches. Great. Ferrer could throw full basically tomorrow. But he gets two days off to rest up.
We used three of our four best relievers with Ferrer throwing the least. I'd be more stressed out about Mejia's use.
It may be that Mitchy Slick saw that zone in the fourth inning and determined that he was going to quit messing around and bring out his big guns and win the game. And he did.
At about that time, Parker started talking about Warren G. Harding's 1920 "return to normalcy" campaign slogan. And damned if Parker did not hit the nail on the head.
A lot of these midweek games, coaches try to get too cute and work to develop second-tier pitching. And Mitchy Slick, instead, just brought in all of his best relievers and won the thing. Good strategy. It worked out great.
