Let us move to Monday night....a game I did not expect them to win against the team with the best record in the NL who is 13-2 at home with a stud in Greinke on the mound. I would of been ok with a 2-1 loss in the ninth but Yelich hits the home run, they take the lead and hey we might win this game!
Then you remember that you are on the road and your "closer" has to come into the game... Twitter will help me the rest of the way
I said my prayers....I held my breathe and got on the ride hoping for a different result.
He gets an out.... you remember he did the same yesterday
Then the base on balls and you remember why you said the prayers.
Eithier gets a hit and your heart sinks because you know....Take him out you think...
Too late. Van Slyke home run ball game 5-3 loss.... THE FUCK!
Then twitter explodes...Lets analyze some of these because #Marlinsnation is never this upset!
Hard to argue with those points...
That is actually very true... I wish my job was simply to get three outs...
Ouch....
Gosh don't remind me of those names.... nightmares! Also who can not forget the 6 finger fastball of Antonio Alfonseca in that bunch....
OMG that is Redmond! He supports bad closers then and NOW!
But ladies and gentlemen the good news is here as the writing is now on the wall...
The life of a closer is delicate...and a bad stretch could relegate you first out of the role of closer and next thing you know you are a middle reliever in Myrtle Beach pitching for the Mermen
But don't worry Val Reyes still has your back Cishek....
(Leave Britney alone)
Too bad she is the only person with your back
The end is here for Steve Cishek as our closer and it was fun while it lasted. Now he can join Heath Bell on the list of names that make us cringe
SO LONG CISHEK
