+2.5 Points: And into Second Place

My pitching was amazing today: 17.1 innings, 2W, 2SV, 14Ks, 1.56 ERA, 0.92 WHIP.

Armando Galarraga dominated the Rays for 7 innings, and even though I'm not crazy about him, I'll take what I can get from the Venezuelan righty. The Tigers bullpen deprived him of the win that he deserved, but JJ Putz made up for that later at Safeco.
Dice-K gave me exactly what I've come to expect from him, which is to say 43 pitches through two innings, 8 strikeouts after 6 innings and a win that looks a lot better on the scorecard than it did in real life.

I need some hitting now and for the next few days, but I'm happy with the production I got this weekend. At half a point out of first and 92.5 points, the lead is in sight, even if my pursuers (91 and 86 points) are too.
