Commentary

Cory Luebke had the weirdest line of the day…

In the seventh inning Cory gave up a harmless but notable double to Mauro Gomez. The double was notable because while it was the third of the day, it was only time Luebke threw pitches with a man on base… Prior to that, Luebke had given up 2 hits – both home runs. Multiple HR's is an auto-disqualifier for my “Pitcher of the Day” awards – but this performance was very intriguing…
