Can't quite hold on this time in 12

Tony Pena gave it up for the second night in a row, as the D-backs get outlasted by the Phillies 6-5 in 12 innings.

I think it's time for Pena to take a little breather down there in the bullpen, and work it out. He is just getting hammered out there...and bringing back him to this game after his horrific play two nights ago against the Nationals was a mistake - big time. He is struggling mightily...why is Bob Melvin bringing him in the game in key situations??? Let him work out his breaking ball issues in blowout games...I know the D-backs are relying on this guy....but sometimes guys need some time to work things out.

Let's hope Arizona can come back strong today against the Phills. This Phillies team sure is fun to watch...they can flat out mash.
