Playoffs, Week 2: Tuesday Roundup

"There's metalcore, hardcore, deathcore, death metal, black metal, blackened death metal . . . "

STUDS

• Kolten Wong (SCC) had a homer, a single, 2 runs and 3 RBIs.

• JT Brubaker (LCL) - no, seriously - struck out 6 in 5 shutout innings to earn the win as the Pirates beat the even more pathetic Dbacks.

DUDS

• Tylor Megill (PM) allowed 7 runs and struck out 5 in a 3.2-inning loss. Between that and being named "Tylor" someone is having a tough week.

• Jesus Luzardo (BOPP) allowed 5 runs and struck out 3 in a 4.2-inning loss. That bumped his ERA from a completely respectable 7.76 to an unholy 7.91.

• Jack Flaherty (JVC) allowed 4 runs and struck out 1 in a 2-inning loss. To the Tigers. And he was removed with shoulder tightness. This is Adam's season in a nutshell.
