Good for Miggy, but it is kind of sad to see how one of the greatest players in our generation has fallen  

In a situation like this, it demonstrates that despite the decline in skills, he knows situational baseball.

If anything, that moment today is the most ideal way to use him... even at his age, it feels like he can be trusted to advance a runner or score them more than most on this team

Yup.  Over the course of a season, it ain’t likely to look good.  Any given plate appearance, though, can be a magical moment of past glory coming back as a reminder.

Seriously, good for Cabrera, good for the team, good for the bullpen, good for Baez.  A lot of guys needed to show a little bit of something and it seems like the kind of game where everyone contributed.  Sure, Lorenzen was shaky, but as was mentioned before, this was kind of a rehab start for him.

After that passed ball, I thought SF would walk the bases loaded to create a force at home. At least walk Cabrera, who has been known to knock in key runs. Yeah, he's older but still a big threat with RISP.

Bullpen was amazing. Good BP usage by Hinch. It won the game for us.
