Comments

The highlight of the game was, of course, Matt Simpson's 3-run homerun in the bottom of the 10th to win the game. What a shot. This sort of excitement is what makes baseball so much fun.

Random notes:

• This was the 1,200th career victory for Augie Garrido.
• The weather was very nice with temps in the upper 60s.
• A pretty stiff wind blew in from left for most of the game but had died down by the 9th inning or so. I wondered afterward if the earlier wind could've knocked Simpson's shot to lf down. I don't think so but you never know.
• Several women from the UT softball team were in attendance cheering for the home team.

And so...
