This past spring was a problem for Victor Arano. Nothing went right. He allowed 20 runs in four innings, walking seven and only striking out one. It cost him his job in the Opening Day bullpen, and stoked fears of some sort of mystery injury or, worse, a Monstars-like event.
Sunday showed he was not washed up, nor deprived of his ability in a cosmic event. Instead, Arano took to the mound in extra innings against the Marlins with the score tied at 1. What he did from that point on ended up becoming one of the best, most dominant relief appearances in franchise history.
