Today's lineup.

[dinosaur jesus]

So I assume they'll delay the second game so they can clear out the fans from the first one?

[ashie62]

Per SNY now we start 5:10 est

No, the fans from the first game are doing the shoveling and can stay all night.

You're kinda learning Ike. But say it after you start walking away. You almost got it.

Keith just explains very politely why Duda may never be what we hope he could be. How could he not be ready for that fastball?

He's got a different hitting philosophy than Keith, but I'll surely take his batting line so far this year all year long.

I hope things go that way.

That play at the plate could have gone either way. He was out, no fault. Nice block by Buck.

[Ceetar]

3-2 now, Tejada RBI single past the old man at first.

[Zvon]

Wow!

[duan]

by the way, i place a really big premium on dillon getting through 6+ and getting they're pitcher gone by 5 if the other half of the double header is going ahead.

[duan]

quick question
walk carlos go?
i think i'd certainly pitch *very* carefully.

gotta be careful, but surely not walk him intentionally.

[Zvon]

Ouch!

Gee:(whiz

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Gee gave back two 2-run leads in less than 5 innings. Booooo.

AT&T Trivia Question: "Who was the first African-American to play in the American League?"

Has this really become a matter of trivia?

[Zvon]

Larry Doby. Hope not.

[TransMonk]

Ugh...the bullpen parade is getting long in Game 1.

Does not bode well for Game 2, IMO.

[Edgy MD]

Ike Davis, the fates call your name.

[Edgy MD]

Nope. Dudatime, then.

[Zvon]

Duda keeps it going. That was a fine play by the Rockie infield.

[Edgy MD]

Buck, not looking fast in barely beating out one of the ugliest attempted DPs you'll see, but somehow going first to third.

Now it's up to Bax.

[Zvon]

Gah. He hit it well too.

[Edgy MD]

Almost, man.

Credit to Mike DiMuro, he's not expanding his strike zone to get out of there.
