4/17 GDT Champs @ AZ

[tzill]

Lineup:

Rowand CF
Sanchez 2B
Huff RF
Posey C
Sandoval 3B
Burrell LF
Belt 1B
Tejada SS
Bumgarner P

Maybe we can get another couple of lightning in a bottle efforts from RoRo...Panda back at 5, Miggy back at 8. This is the standard "until Ross is back from the DL" lineup. Once Ross is back, expect Miggy to hit 6 and Ross to hit 8.

Bum needs to dominate this game...he's due. Would love to see Belt get a couple of knocks. Looks like I'll be stuck in the hotel this afternoon prepping the depo, so I won't get to go to Chase and extend my undefeated string.

Will check in on the GDT, though.

would be a good time to start an undefeated when-watching-the-game-at-an-Arizona-hotel-bar string!

Giants hit Barry Enright last year pretty good (I think he did have one solid game against the Giants, tho)

Yeah, unfortunately, that would become a get-fired-for-oversleeping-the-depo-with-a-hangover string. Nobody likes THAT guy. 'Specially not Mrs. tzill.

Remember like 4 or so years ago when the D-Backs were going to be the next big team out west with young studs everywhere and the top 2 in the rotation of Webb and Haren?

Oh how times have changed.

 

[SFGRTB]

MadBum throwing hard thus far. 96 on the gun, nice!

 

[ColinCoby]

The Cubs doing a good job trying to blow up the Rockies 'pen before we hit town.

 

[ColinCoby]

Yikes. Gotta get the change and slider working pronto

Whats the outlook?

 

[SFGRTB]

Do I need to say it?

 

[ColinCoby]

Whats the outlook?

3 1/3 innings for the Rockie starter so far. 76 pitches.

4-4 game.

We ain't gonna talk about Huff's lack of range again are we? Man.

 

[ColinCoby]

Tejada made that catch in left field!

Can't wait until Ross is back.

Good! Now we need the game to 16 innings.


And no, we don't need to talk about Huff this time. We can talk about Tejada having to catch a ball in not-so-shallow LF. (Granted, Burrell did take a step back first)

You and I are saying all the same shit again I see.

[SFGRTB]

Wow indeed.

 

[xxERICSMITHXX]

That was really lame

 

[ColinCoby]

They're having good at bats against this guy. They'll get to him. The key concern is whether Bum can find it or not.

 

[SFGRTB]

Ross is 1-2, single and scored (from second) on a Brett Pill double. Playing RF.


Also to note, in both his AB's he was down 0-2 after swinging at the first 2 pitches.

 

[TheSaboteur]

So Bumgarner hit 96 on his fastball?

 

[SFGRTB]

So Bumgarner hit 96 on his fastball?

Yeah, a few times. He has been consistantly around 94 mph too.
