Well, last night wasn’t great, but we knew this lineup would be a work in progress. The only real decision to second guess was Corbin and Brownie going with the closer, Ethan Smith, in the top of the 9th of a game in which they were trailing 2-1, rather than keep Luke Murphy—who was dominating—on the mound for a 3rd inning.
Smith promptly gave up a 2 run dinger, icing the game.
This is why you don't bring in a closer in a non-save situation. 2 run bomb. 4-1 Sex Panthers.
