The Scorpions won the game in a wild ninth following a Guillermo Quiroz error. Catcher Quiroz surrendered a passed ball, allowing Cody Haerther to second. Then, Peoria 2B Brendan Harris threw one away, allowing Haerther to score and Tupman to reach second. Following an intentional pass to Josh Anderson, Howie Kendrick singled in the winning run, though he failed to get an RBI.

I was watching this game crawl by on Gameday today, and it was mighty cool to see James Loney come in and get the RBI single that won the game. It was pretty funny, too, because the game would have been called a tie if they had completed the inning and the score remained unchanged (2-2); them's the AFL rules. The way the game was won -- after an RBI single with men on first and second -- was almost a replay of the top half of the inning, where Casey Daigle nearly gave away the game by getting into a men-on-the-corners jam with one out. Fortunately, he coaxed a double-play from David Espinosa and got out of the inning.

This marks the seventh straight game the Dogs have won. James Loney has had 14 RBIs in his last 10 games. Woot!

hah, maybe andy has been spending too much time with "susan" and not enough time taking BP :P
 
"Susan"? You mean, Annie?
 
in andy laroche's journal, he makes a point of singling out a very supportive fan named susan, so i just thought i'd try to read between the lines a little, hehe. i wasn't being serious anyway.

who's annie? does he have a girlfriend/wife?
 
A "baseball Annie" is the canonical name used for female groupies, and how Annie Savoy of Bull Durham got her name. It was supposed to be a little joke... as for LaRoche having a wife, I have no idea.
 
hah, i didn't know that!
