yes, but my real concern is that when the playoffs come around, there's no way we won't run into the giants, they'll simply beat on us again...our offense is totally awful. i wish we could get a big bat or two.

If the Diamondbacks make the playoffs and face the Giants, I'll take my chances. By the way, if the Diamondbacks meet the Giants in the playoffs that means it would be in the NLCS.

Remember the 2001 World Series? No one really gave the Diamondbacks a chance.

.500 since we got the veterans back. Playing Mark Grace is insane. Pitching Myers is worse.

Hey Brenley, the kids got you back in the game. Play them.

man, i've hung with the dbacks all season, even during the dark days of injury, but right now, right here, we have us a huge game. our chance to show we belong. we lose this and we can kiss the division goodbye. we win, we have the rest of our rotation (Which happens to be very good) going in. Unfortunately, we have our worst pitcher on the mound against one of their best. man, i hope williams has an off night.

gonzo, get it going dude! we need offense tonight!

yes! hilly brought kata in on fonzie's error. dessens is pitching great. no, really! we just need to get him a bit more run support in case he suddenly collapses later in the game.

....ummm McCracken is hitting .230 with zero homeruns. Maybe you are looking at somebody else's RF.

Okay, bases loaded and no outs. They definitely need to get some runs. Only up 2-1.

3-1 and one out and the bases loaded. Do you pinch-hit Dessens?

Great call by Brenly. Safety squeeze. 4-1 Diamondbacks.

They flashed a BA for him that said .303. It must have been .303 with RISP. :oops:
