Follow the script! Inning 1-2: Come right out of the box and score a bunch of runs
Inning 3: Initiate offensive hibernation
Inning 6: Starter starts to falter, but barely makes it through with team in the lead.
Inning 7: Starter hits the 100-pitch glass ceiling and the gas tank immediately empties. First round of relievers (new guys) bail out starter, team still has lead.
Inning 8: Send in the clowns (proven crap). First clown (Bozo) immediately blows the hold and allows opponent to take lead. The next two clowns (Homey and Ronald McDonald) give up subsequent runs to put the game out of reach.
Inning 9: Initiate Project C@cktease. Noffense awakes from its long winter nap. They score just enough runs to make the score (n-1), with n = opponent's number of runs. Therefore, the runs that clowns 2 and 3 gave up are the deciding factor. Have pinch-hitter strike out to end the misery. Clown 1 takes loss. Leadoff hitter goes 0-5. Delgado and Wright pad stats. Lose ground to division lead and wildcard lead.
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
