Dodgers at Giants, Top of the Ninth

Dodgers up, ready to lose, facing Wilson.

Fred Lewis makes a half-hearted attempt to make a great play. Either go all out or don't. He only gave about 75% and decided last second that he could actually make the catch on that line drive to left. He dives, misses and it gets by him. Pinch hitter Mark Loretta gets a double from a single.

Now Lewis is playing too far in and the next ball is a foot over his glove. Another double and a run scores. Rowand came over and gave Fred an earful. Fred didn't seem to take it well. Get 7 seasons under your belt, THEN you can question your centerfielder, not before.

Broken bat groundball gets out number one. A hard grounder straight to Uribe gets out number two. Fans are on their feet. Manny hits a chopper to short and it's over. A faster runner might have made it. Rowand runs off the field with a huge smile slapping five all the way to the dugout. Fred Lewis has a different look on his face. That rookie may need a pick me up before next game.
