Seven-Run Comeback — Ugh!

Back from a seven-run deficit to tie the game! So why am I annoyed?

Because it's the bottom of the eighth, one man down, Dellucci and Martinez are on first and third (respectively), Blake doubles down the left-field line, and Dellucci gets thrown out at the plate "by eight feet," according to Hammy.

Skinner apparently waved him home. "He took a chance," Hegan said. WHY? You keep him on third, and you can take the lead with a sac fly or a well-placed groundout. Not to mention the extra out to play with.

Seattle intentionally walks Hafner, walks Peralta to load the bases, and Garko strikes out.

Ugh.
