88 pitches for Eflin. Command wavering a bit this inning. It will be interesting to see if they try to get one more inning out of him. Weak bottom of the lineup due up.

Two innings to go. I lean toward the pen but who knows which would be better in the sixth, Eflin or a reliever. Either could be shaky.

Gosselin hits a couple hard but ends up out. The foul was high off the wall just a tad left of the yellow foul line.

Need six outs with no runs given up.

Piece of cake.
