Don't worry. Sutton and Grace are jinxing it enough for all of us.

Melvin should have pinch hit for DD with Reynolds on. Better opportunity to get an extra run on the board and to spell an obviously exhausted Davis

That was a freaking fantastic game-saving catch. He had to run a mile to get there, too!

Romero the hero! Wait, that doesn't rhyme. :doi:
Wasn't Salazar's famous leaping grab last year in right field against the Padres?

Chris Young's great catch last year was against the Padres (robbing Milton Bradley of a grand slam going from left center to right center).

I'm not sure about Salazar's

I really like Romero. He seems to be a very solid fielder. People will knock his average, but if you watch the games you'll notice that he does not strike out very often. He's at least putting contact on the ball. Once he stops hitting it at people his average should rise.

big game for the dbacks we will have a real good chance to take the series tonight with Haren pitching and lets hope the dodgers lose tonight :), also it is good to have Juan Cruz back on board he should help our bullpen even more.

Bats are looking good again, could Reynolds be coming on? On this road trip he's 7 for his last 23 with 3 hr's and 8 RBI's. Sure would be a boost to have him go on one of his hot streaks

Nice to see guys like Young, Tracy and Reynolds hitting. Also nice to see Romero producing.

Haren giving up the home run to Gerut was shocking. I've seen it many times for the better D-back pitchers, blemish the first inning, but settle down for the rest of the game. He did, the bullpen didn't melt down, they offense cranked out 13 hits, the defense was solid and there were no baserunning blunders. No complaints about this one, except that there aren't enough games like this. :thumbup:
