As much as I thought, and still think, that Nathan should have pitched the tenth Thursday, it's not like the opposition was knocking line drives all over the place off Guerrier. As you point out, tonight's hits weren't hit hard either, just in the wrong spot. If it weren't for bad luck, Guerrier would have no luck at all. That's a pretty good point.

His last few outings haven't been good, but the two hits tonight were ground balls that found holes and in his previous outing, the two hits he allowed were described as "soft" (I didn't witness them).
