Austin Romine, C: 1 for 2, 1 2B – pulled a double into the left-centerfield gap off Jeurys Familia on a 3-1 fastball that Gameday clock at 97 … threw Eury Perez out trying to stealing second on a breaking ball … entered the game in the 6th
Hector Noesi: 1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 0 K, 0-3 GB/FB – ten of his 15 pitches were strikes … pitched the 2nd inning, sat 92-94 mostly … gave up a single to Logan Morrison of the Marlins

Chad Moeller, PF-LF: 0 for 1 – took over for Huffman & played the outfield for what appears to be the first time in his professional career, majors or minors
Juan Miranda, 1B: 2 for 4, 1 R, 2 2B – seriously, why not swap him & Tracy for Colin Curtis & Kevin Russo? it might actually, you know, improve the bench … certainly couldn’t make it any worse

George Kontos: 3 IP, 7 H, 4 R, 4 ER, 0 BB, 1 K, 3-4 GB/FB – I give up trying to figure this whole “relief appearance between starts” arrangement out … it would make more sense if it was a one or two inning thing, but no, he goes out and throws a zillion pitches
