It was Carlos Castillo that lost this game? Boy am I glad we brought that guy back

I questioned why they would throw him on two days rest as well. Thought they should have tried to get one more out of Pacheco. He had runners on base, but wasn't getting hit hard at all.

It appears Reed's hot stick finally cooled in the playoff.

 

What did he have, one hit?

i dotn knwo if this was in another post... i didnt check yet...but WARTHOGS WON!

Two hits in the series...... yes, he certainly cooled off..

you cannot expect him to be the source of all your runs but it looks like it would have helped

Winston Salem did win 6-3 behind Heath Phillips vs Bryan Bullington (was he the numero uno pick in last years draft?). Now up 2 games to 0.

Rex, or anybody, why is Castillo on the AA roster?

I remember Rex indicating that Castillo was the one who alerted Sox to Yofu, so maybe he was resigned to return a favor. We needed some arms after those trades, roster fill if you will.
