Meet Screech. Yes America, the Gnats named their mascot after a lovable Dustin Diamond character.The Fukudome jokes will flow from now until he retires, I envy Cubs fans for that reason alone.
The good news: Filthy in the 8th inning, Wagner in the 9th, Johan going 7 without his best stuff.
The bad news: Castillo batting 2nd, Reyes looking silly, Castillo batting 2nd.
Highlight of the game: Wright's AB in the 9th inning. After getting embarrassed on the 0-1 pitch (he was almost down on one knee swinging at the slider), he showed great discipline and fouled off a few tough pitches before working out a walk and eventually scoring on Church's screamer. I know it's been beaten into the ground, but I don't think I've ever seen a hitter more comfortable in a 0-2 count than Wright.
