I actually thought that, in contrast to the season, that we pitched pretty well in the postseason. Were we lights out on the mound? With one notable exception, no. But I think that we were good enough, and probably over-achieved. Even today, many of the hits against were groundball singles.
I think that our postseason problems were more in other areas, including poor baserunning and lack of hitting, especially with RISP, and especially from the heart of our order. We won this season because of scoring a ton of runs, and it seemed that was challenging for us in the postseason. Of course, part of that is facing excellent pitchers, like today.
