Base hit scores two, but even if they don't get it at least they're making Shields work.

That was #18

Eh, one run is doable.

If/when Shields goes out after giving up 4 more it will be less doable.

No matter how much he kills my team, I cannot hate Hunter Pence. And somehow that makes me even angrier.
