Do whatever you feel you need to do to justify rooting for someone based solely on their skin color.

Another great performance by Aaron Nola but they lose anyway? Is he the new Cole Hamels... terrific pitching with little team support. Sigh...

Yeah, in 7 innings Nola had 9 Ks and no walks, but he also gave up 4 earned runs ... Hardly a 'great' performance in my opinion.
In a lot of Hamel's outings, if he had pitched better he would have won ... can't blame the team. Great pitchers get the W.
