Same idea, basically.
However, Grabow came in in the 8th to hold the game, not save the game for 2 innings. The Proctologist was put in -- and was meant to -- hold and then save the game in the 9th to give Mo a night off. Proctor blew the save opp (as he always has); Grabow mearly blew holding the game in the 8th.
...and how can I not jab you for benching a 29-point pitching start?? I just didn't feel up to doing comments for everyone - but couldn't let that one pass...
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! lol
