 Blair is a totally different pitcher this inning. Starting the inning with a 4 pitch walk is a mental thing. Hope a great outing isn't wasted. 

Henley I suppose has always had a problem maintaining a mental edge, Going a full seven innings with an immoderate pitch count probably strained his ability to hold it together.  Not to mention pure fatigue.

He probably should have been pulled after the first walk.  I won't fault letting him start the 8th.

Batter flies to right, runner beats Todd's throw. Nothing could be done.

1-0 TTU

Wait, what happened here. I turned around and saw a fly out to right (or thought I did) with the run scoring. But the runner made it to first and there was still only 1 out?

Pierce needs to think a bit about how he handles starters and relievers at the start of an inning. 

One might question Henley starting the 8th .. but, there was no fucking question after he walked the leadoff man on four straight pitches.

This one’s on Pierce.
