Benson's second start

[GiveHyzduashot]

7 IP, 6 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 5 SO on 96 pitches, 66 strikes.

That start gets an A+ in my book. The bullpen would have been dead if Benson was chased early again.

... he went 92 pitches and that was just as important. He is establishing in his own mind that he is healthy and ready to go again.

... Sean Lowe just might be dead soon, figuratively speaking. He is killing us. I watched the game with some friends last night and when he came out for the 9th I said, "Well, we won't be going extra innings tonight..."

Brian Boeringer has another fine relief outing... he was a great pickup IMHO...
