Demerritte has his avg up to .265. He's been on a tear lately.

Acuna 3-3 also. Dude is a stud

Acuna 3-3 also. Dude is a stud

Was at the game tonight. We left in the 7th.

Acuna is special. His three hits were:
Rocket up the middle
Flair to right
Line drive to left.

Fun story: After Acuna stole second on a pickoff attempt at first, he called time, the ump was a jerk and he didn't realize that the ump didn't grant it to him so he got off to fix his uniform and the ump called him out. It was quite stupid.

Sanchez was working it tonight. His line looks pedestrian but his defense let him down in the 6th. Home plate ump was squeezing him a bit as well. Two of his walks looked like strikeouts to me.

Hate I didn't get to see Riley.
