Season thread. The Diamondbacks start their run to the playoffs tonight

[bankybruce]

If Hammock was in right tonight out staring lineup 6 guys hitting at least 300 and Shea is at 294 with Overbay at 288.(Finley is at 300 now). It is a shame that some of these guys will go back to riding bus's very soon.

 

[bankybruce]

I do not care if Spivey has to play RF, Kata should be able to play as long as he continues to hit like he is. He is not hitting 392.

Jay Payton just homered to tie it up, 4-4...DOH!!

 

[Lefty]

Damn, 4-4. Good sure gives up a lot of home runs. What has hurt is the Diamondbacks have had the bases loaded twice and only have one run to show for it. Still time to win.

 

[Lefty]

Four home runs by Good, yikes. Maybe Brenly should of yanked him after the last inning. It's rally time now.

 

[Evil Ash]

Good just gave up his 4th homerun of the game and now the Rockies lead 5-4!! Damn!!

 

[Lefty]

Let's get those runs back and more.

 

[Lefty]

Well they had a chance to score in the 8th but Grace struck out. Down to their last 3 outs. We need the Rally Monkey!

 

[Evil Ash]

Well Finley doubled and Cintron just walked! Gonzo is coming to the plate!!

Come on Gonzo...Come on Gonzo...Come on Gonzo

 

[bankybruce]

I need back to back homers so I can go to bed, it is midnight here

 

[Lefty]

Well, all good things must come to an end. let's start a new winning streak tomorrow. Also, let's take the series.

 

[Evil Ash]

Gonzo and Hammock strike out and the winning streak is now over at 12...DOH!!

Ah well, win tomorrow and we can at least split the series.

 

[Lefty]

Okay, the Diamondbacks go down in order in the first. Hopefully Patterson will pitch a great game. I have to leave for a game but hopefully be back before it's over.

 

[Lefty]

Patterson looked very good in the first. He was not tentative and threw aggressively. Got to go now, hopefully you guys keep the thread going during the game.

 

[Dback Jon]

Through 4, only 1-0 Rox. Time for some O!

 

[Dback Jon]

Ok Fins - get us going!

 

[Dback Jon]

3-0 after 6 - bottom of the order in the 7th for the good guys.

 

[Lefty]

I get home and it's 6-0. Have they had any scoring chances? To get shut out in Colorado would be bad. The Rockies are playing the Diamondbacks tough up there this year.

Runners to second - that is it.

 

[Lefty]

Finley goes deep, 6-1. Never give up.

In Coors, no lead is safe

 

[Lefty]

Do you guys think Patterson pitched well enough to stay in the rotation? Maybe when Curt comes back Patterson stays in the rotation and Good goes to the bullpen.

 

[Lefty]

Here's some good news. The Phillies lost and the Dodgers were down 1-0. Also, Curt Schilling has thrown 3 innings so far and has only given up one hit.

 

[Lefty]

Wow, Finley just missed it. I liked how they never gave up.

How bad did he miss it? first pitch swinging from a new pitcher.
