Watch for falling pianos

Four innings, four double-plays. Now that's some stoopid hitting.

UPDATE: Unfortunately, the Halo's luck didn't get any better after that:

6 double plays (tied a record).

11 hits, ZERO runs.

Seven left on base.

0-fer with runners in scoring position.

The bad luck wasn't limited to the offense either- Lackey had good stuff today, but got pounded to the tune of 7 ER in 5 2/3 IP. He only made a couple mistakes, but the Twinks were all over them. In other words, he was the anti-Silva. That was probably the luckiest game I've ever seen a pitcher have. An 11-hit complete game shutout? I had never seen that before today.

It's over. It's in the past. Now let us never speak of it again...
