Haren outpitches Minor (!), but then Clippard blows the lead, but the in the 9th, Kimbrel gives up a hit and two walks (!!), and best-defender-in-the-major-leagues Andrelton Simmons gives up the game-winning error (!!!).<br /><br />I hereby predict that in the nightcap, a squirrel will steal the ball, resulting in a ground-rule double. Can't be less likely than what happened in the opener!<br /><br />(In other weirdness, Justin Upton: 1.0 BWAR, Denard Span 2.4 BWAR. fWAR's closer, 3.4 to 2.8, but huh. Can't say anybody saw that coming after April.)<br />DezoPenguinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207681.post-29380067076875320112013-09-17T13:40:26.589-07:002013-09-17T13:40:26.589-07:00Natty's with a come from behind win!

Leaves everything likely in our control going into the final week, though we would probably need to win out.
