I don't think anyone can really blame me, however. Apparently I shouldn’t have tuned out when it was 6-0 and Batista was still in. I don’t think anyone can really blame me, however.

At least he can still <em>usually</em> get you through five innings on a semi-consistent basis.

I'd just glanced at his record--first after being shocked by that's where he'd ended up--and was surprised that he seemed to be somewhat successful. But I did assume that it was smoke and mirrors and his tenacity. He's the original bus. Only being run over by one will get him off the mound. Well, that’s what I meant by sort of winning.
