Head-y Stuff<\/p>\n

Lefty Brent Headrick worked himself into a bases-loaded jam in the eighth inning with two singles and a walk, but got out of it unscathed with a ground ball on his 30th pitch of the frame.<\/p>\n

Caught My Eye<\/p>\n

Giancarlo Stanton shook off a foul ball that bounced into his gut to stay in the box and smoke a 112.4 mph bullet that died on the warning track (the wind was blowing in). <\/p>\n

The veteran DH also lined out at 104.1 mph earlier in the game but picked up his only hit on a chopper that squeezed through the open right side.<\/p>\n
