Nice to see the first Walker-Cabrera-Duda DP in the first.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I'm excited about this. Can't watch, but excited anyway.

Yesterday I was very busy and worried and was unable to concentrate on the 1st radio broadcast

[Ceetar]

nice hustle double for Lagares leading off.

[Ceetar]

quite a hand for Yoenis Cespedes.

I think it's a World Series ring that doesn't fit his chubbo ring finger.

Hmmmm 2-0 Marlins, Verrett gave up a no doubter after an E3 by Doodoo.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Marlins swap out their entire team to take the field in the fifth.
Gotta love early spring training games. It's nice to hear GKR again,
kinda takes some of the bluster out the blustery outside.

result inconclusive

"No dopey shootout" - Howie Rose

Great to see baseball again. And Herrera ties it in the 9th with an inside the park homer! Very nice.
I agree, also great to hear GKR and they were in mid season form. No fluff.

That business about Duda's game 5 throw was very interesting. Hosmer wasn't that far off the bag. If Wilmer had fielded that it might have gone completely different. Not blaming Wright, a 3rd baseman should get whatever he can reach, but GKR's analysis was very informative.

Dilson looks strong.

Yeah, but I also liked that Keith on TV, and Howie on the radio side, both called him out for not exactly turning on the speed until after the ball was kicked out in the OF.
Not sure what his running looked like on his triple in the following (Friday's) game.

Dom Smith also un-ran a double into a single on Friday and apparently got an earful from Terry about it. Both players are too young to be doing such stuff, even in spring training.
