LET'S PLAY TWO! POINT FOUR! Nice 22-inning, 6 1/4-hour game in San Diego last night (and this morning), with no scoring until the 14th (when both teams put one up) and then no more scoring until the 22nd, when Willy Tavares came home unearned on an error, steal, error, and double. Both teams played everybody on the active roster who wasn't a starting pitcher. How bad was the offense in this game? Colorado had 27 plate appearances -- an entire perfect game's worth -- by players batting below the Mendoza line. And they won.
