Nikhazy didn't have a very good outing either..Surprised to see Allen with such a bad game. Wonder what happened?

Thanks Pete! There will be nights when even the best pitchers struggle. I'm not worried in the slightest as long as he's healthy.A few things to remember .... he did have 10 ks in 5 innings. The other team was swinging away. And, the 3 HRs were the first given up since the first game.
Of the 3 HRs ... two were low knee to thigh high middle of the plate ... one on a 1-2 count. Thus, he missed the location. The other one was a throw away pitch .... thrown away from plate even and over the shoulder that the kids just got a hold of (protect type swing) that just carried.
And, his defense didn't help him that much. In 3rd inning, first guy hit a grounder between ss and 3rd, legit hit. Next guy hit a excuse me flair in that nomad zone behind 3rd that fell. No one was really even near it. Yet, 2 pitches before the home run, there was a pop fly behind 3rd in foul ground. Tena ran almost into Scheeman and both gave up on the ball thinking the other had it only for it to drop.
And, one of the hits before the 2nd HR was a fly ball to right that Valera had to run for but slide and hit his glove and popped out.
So maybe not his night on location and a bit of bad fielding .... Yet, it is good that we can jump on these guys for a bad game where they get 10ks. It's kind of like McK ... you can have good stuff but you got to learn that MLB hitters will catch most of your mistakes (so you cannot make any).
