Actually, this is true.

Turambar is responsible for failing to fully enforce the Balfour Declaration.

Haren still dealing.

And still just a shade over 80 pitches. Could go eight.

That's okay.

Just take the last play and blame Turambar for it. You’ll be back on track.

Ex: Sure, the Astros went down 1-2-3 in the 7th. But Haren could have gotten out of it in even fewer pitches if not for Turambar.

Done and done.
