“He wasn’t quite as sharp as he has been,” Dusty Baker said. “He made some quality pitches when he had to. He was full of determination.”


How does one hit in 5 innings not qualify as sharp? I think Dusty may not like Homer. I may be reading into it, but it seems that even when positive things happen for Homer, Dusty has something on the negative to say. How can you complain about a guy pounding a tight strike zone? Boggles me.
