Ah. An excellent start for Harang.

Bad throw by Hanigan on the SB attempt but a pretty weak effort by OCab to bring it in.

Keppinger does his Keppinger act and reaches out to tap a grounder past Harang to score Bourn from 3B.

Just rewound and cannot disagree more with the assessment of that play.

Rolen plunked, because they fear him.

Not a bad inning from Harang, really. The Bourn HBP obviously was bad, but from there he got a groundout, a hit from Lee on a good pitch that he fought off and then a K of Berkman. He seemed to be locating his fastball well, but obviously he didn't have much of a feel for his slider.
