OSS: Good pitching and great defense pick up another W.

Three+ up:

  1. Alec Mills had another solid start, pitching seven shutout innings with four strikeouts and three walks. I caught the first few innings on TV and thought it was shaping up to be an extremely fifth-starter-ish performance, but then I blinked and it was suddenly the seventh inning.
  2. Javy Baez and David Bote had great defensive plays in this one. Javy had yet another #JavyTag, and it still blows my mind what kind of spatial awareness he has on these kinds of plays.
