Rios has had opportunities to knock in some runs today and struck out three times. THAT CAN'T HAPPEN. in a game like this. COME ON.

0-for-4 with 3K's isn't great, but in both baseball and softball, the pitcher simply wins each at-bat far more frequently than the hitter. We have great hitters and they all get on base less than 50% of the time. Until those fundamentals change, the better pitching team more likely than not is going to win. 

It is hard for me to blame the offense when the pen has now blown 3 games in its last four, and some of our high leverage relievers have 7+ ERAs.
