d. But he bounced a wild pitch to the next batter and Yunel Escobar scored from third, before Mark Kotsay lined out to left to end the inning. Pelfrey settled down thereafter and cruised through the next three innings, retiring all nine batters on just 25 pitches.

They're also missing Matt Diaz, Martin Prado and Mark Kotsay, while Chipper, Esco and now Infante are all aching in one way or another without (yet) going to the DL.
Any manager would have trouble with this kind of lineup, and Cox is no different. It's hard to work magic without a wand or pixie dust, and he's left with Teixera and McCann to support the offense, while starting standouts Tim Hudson, Jair Jurrjens and Jorge Campillo try to last long enough to get the game to whichever closer is healthy enough to throw (they've had at least four different endgame stoppers this year).
