Remember when there was some talk around here of trading Derek Holland to Toronto to try to win the AL West in 2009?
I wrote a post about it back then: Memo to Nolan Ryan: No way that you trade Derek Holland!
They didn't make the deal. They didn't "rent" Halladay for 50 games. It would have been a very expensive "rent a pitcher" transaction.
Tonight, Holland and Napoli did everything that Ron Washington could have asked for:
First, he pitched into the 9th and saved a battered bullpen. They really needed that "night off" after the Saturday night game.
Second, Napoli kept Holland focused the whole night. He also hit a 3-run homer that made pitching a little easier.
It's a 2-2 series and someone will win this thing in St Louis!
