It’s hard to put into words just how wild, weird, and fun these first eight games have been. I mean, 7-1? Seven and one? At least one homer in every single game? A different guy notching the save in four straight games? I can confidently say that not even the wildest optimists would have seen this start coming.

What was most bizarre of all about tonight, though, was how much of the game was set to cruise control. Marco Gonzales, making his third start of the year on April 2nd (hey there’s some more of that weird for ya), was nothing short of dazzling.
