Who are people for?

Nobody, just great baseball and we got it last night. That was great all-around baseball by both teams.

Two things stood out to me going forward. First, Arizona is going to keep stealing bases like it is nobody's business. Too bad the free Taco Bell promotion is not based on quantity, because we'd be eating a lot of tacos after this series! Arizona has the team speed to do it. Rangers pitchers aren't keeping them close to the bag. I expect Arizona to push the envelope on stealing bases. Second, I'm seriously questioning Sewald as the Arizona closer. Ginkel may be a better option, as he's got "stuff". Sewald just doesn't look like closer material on TV. Maybe he typically has a lot of movement on his pitches, but it didn't look that way last night. They should have won game 1. JMO.

PS...On second thought, I'm going Diamondbacks. I was born in AZ.
