Picture it.
Nashville, Tennessee. The last cycle.
Memphis starter Yuniesky Mantalban comes out after six innings of three hit ball, giving Sammy Williams a 3-1 lead going into the seventh. Williams proceeds to giver up two earned in 2/3 of an inning and the game is tied at 3. Two relievers later we get Edwin Parque. Parque comes in the eighth, gets one out and heads into the ninth inning with a 6-4 lead.
Parque proceeds to give up an RBI single and a three-run homer -- 2/3 IP, 4H, 4ER.
The decision? Sammy Williams AND Parque get blown saves and Parque takes the loss. Two blown saves in one game.
Worse, the three-run walk-off was to the same guy who hit a three-run walk-off the day before. Sonofa...
