    Giles supporters are in shock.... AJ is not one of them.

    What is the % of strikes that Peacock has thrown this year?

    only got to watch the 9th in full. Peacock was fire today. Good job by Hinch keeping him in

    Balls that are actually in the strike zone? Perhaps 10%. :)

    I'm not in shock. Hinch is a smart guy who is evolving as a manager and doesn't do 'typical' manager things. I'm more surprised Giles didn't get an inning in one of the previous 2 games.

    I actually liked this win today:

    --Keuchel struggled early but found his groove and limited the damage
    --got runs across via scrappy play and timely hits/sacrifices
    --relief pitching was solid and Peacock proving that he can close out via multiple innings is an interesting development
    --Reddick is back! All the talk of him sucking is now forgotten
    --No Correa, McCann, Gattis (or Gurriel) and we still win
    --Great to win a close one! Keeps the guys on edge and shows they can win in many different ways!

    --Oh--and SWEEP BABY!!

    Ive had my fair share of gripe towards Hinch this past season and it does indeed look like he is evolving as a manager; by not bringing in giles in a one run game.;)
