It was nice to have a home field laugher, and be able to exhale fairly early at Coors for the first time in a while.
After Nolan's second and third at-bats, where he hit LASERS directly at Cabrera in Left, and then Hanson in Right, it was cool to see him to get a homer, a single, and four RBI's in his last two at-bats. He squared up the ball pretty well in all FIVE plate appearances, so it was good to see it even out for him later in the game.
And even though it was great to see German go seven innings and pick up his 6th win, it sucked that he was ONE pitch away from getting out of there w/one earned run, instead of three. 
Last thought, Parra didn't get back a moment too soon, and having him go three for five in his return was great to see. Between the way Cargo's been (not)hitting, Dahl out w/his stress reaction, and Desmond not producing a whole helluva lot yet, we REALLY coulda used him during the last two weeks, when we lost 12 out of 15, and scored a pathetic 3.2 runs per game.
