Hello Win Column, Win #6: Francisco Squelches Late Rally by Jays, 5-4

I think my feeling are best summed up by Adam Morris' words after the game on Lonestarball.com:

"Good things happen when you bring your best reliever into the game during the most critical situation."

And now to hear from the losing locker room (the first one is actually a game preview):

Get Ready for a Slugfest from Blue Jay Hunter

"A highly offensive-driven team like the Texas Rangers reminds me of one of those plasticized, highly done-up women that you’d see in Hollywood; although they have a lot going for them looks-wise, their IQ probably resembles that of a doorstop. That’s just like the Rangers; all offense, and no defense ."

Halladay Takes His Loss of the Season from BlueBird Banter

"Well, we knew he wasn't going to go 34-0, but it is still a surprise whenever Doc loses . . . Offensively, we scored 4 when we needed 6. The Ranger's less than intimidating bullpen held us to 1 run over the last 3 innings . . . "

"Being half-human/half-machine means the human side [of Roy Halladay] shows up every once in a while (which, it turns out, is 5ER and 9SO against the best bats in baseball)."
