With 3 runs already in, runners on 1st and 2nd, no outs and the Bucs’ lead cut to one in the seventh inning, Brad Lincoln: Middle Relief Slayer... made his first relief appearance since rejoining the bullpen Sunday — and did what was necessary.
Hunter Pence struck out, Shane Victorino flied out and Lincoln punctuated it with a strikeout of pinch hitter Jim Thome complete with a Stare-down, and the Bucs held on for an 11-7 victory at Philly. JMac with the win now with 7... Yinz can forget about Spahn & Sain and 2 days of rain....Now its McDonald & Burnett and hope it gets wet!!
