Writer's Note: The daily selections of the three Heroes and three Goats are based solely on the top three and bottom three WPA scores for the game. The selections are not based on my subjective opinion.
THE THREE HEROES:
- Superhero - Dallas Beeler (.162). Even if he doesn't pitch again at the major-league level, he can go back knowing that he did quite well for himself on Saturday.
- Hero - Brian Schlitter (.053). Some days all you need to do is pitch a shutout inning, even when you're down one run.
- Sidekick - Carlos Villanueva (.014). And his appearance on the podium tells you everything that you need to know about the offense in this game.
THE THREE GOATS:
- Billy Goat - Justin Grimm (-.154). The 12th time this season he's left a game in worse shape than it was before he got there. That's... not good.
- Goat - Starlin Castro (-.137). One of the two 0-for-4 players in the game, and got hosed by the short flyout double play in the fourth.
- Kid - Junior Lake (-.096). The other 0-for-4, but without the theatrics.
