Season thread-the road to the playoffs

[Lefty]

Maybe this perfect game will get the team going!!! Great start to the road trip.

 

[PDXChris]

I watched the entire game and didn't realize it was a perfect game until around the 6th inning, and I was hesistant to comment since I'd probably jinx him.... Way to go Randy....This could be the "SPARK" the Dbacks need!!!!!

 

[Lefty]

I turned to the TBS channel because I could not stand listening to Thom and Grace. What I also notice was the TBS telecast was about 3-5 seconds ahead of FoxAZ so I knew he got the perfect game before those watching the Fox channel.

More good news, the Dodgers lost 8-7.

 

[Evil Ash]

Well lets see how Webb follows up perfection

 

[IndyDevil]

Oh great - Webb allowed a hit!!

 

[Evil Ash]

Oh great - Webb allowed a hit!!

We should send him down to Tucson then

 

[Evil Ash]

Cintron with an RBI ground out ... D-backs lead 1-0!

 

[Evil Ash]

Webb helps his own cause with an RBI single ... D-backs now up 2-0

 

[Evil Ash]

Gonzo crushes a 2 run HR ... D-backs now lead 4-0

 

[Evil Ash]

OUCH ... Mayne got hit on the elbow with Garcia's bat on his backswing. He's okay but damn that looked like it hurt

 

[Evil Ash]

Ugh Koplove gives up 2 runs in the 8th and the lead is now 4-2. Here comes Valverde

 

[IndyDevil]

.....and heeeeeere comes the bullpen!!!

Koplove gives up two runs, lead cut to 4-2. Valverde needs to shut things down NOW!!!

 

[Evil Ash]

Valverde blows the save and the game is now tied. UN ****ing believeable

 

[IndyDevil]

Is BB in such a daze over the bullpen he is starting to blame the baseball bat itself?? He had Franco's bat checked after Julio took Valverde's pitch over the RF fence - pretty bush league stuff IMHO.

 

[Evil Ash]

Woo Hoo! Gonzo hits a solo HR amd then Fins follows that with a solo HR of his own and the D-backs now lead 6-4. Finish them off NOW!!

Fins up at the top all alone with the major league lead in HRs with 13

 

[Lefty]

Just got home to see Gonzo and Finley go deep in the 11th. Let's hold this lead.

 

[Evil Ash]

Bruney finishes them off and the D-backs win 6-4! Lets go for the sweep tomorrow and then maybe just maybe have Sexson return on Friday.

I will let my opinion be known now about Bruney. There is no way in hell he should be sent down for the rest of the season. I've been very impressed by his performances thus far

 

[Lefty]

More good news, the Dodgers lost again.

 

[Evil Ash]

More good news, the Dodgers lost again.

as did the rest of the NL West with the exception of the Padres

 

[Evil Ash]

Should be interesting to see how Fossum does this start. Time to go for the sweep

 

[Evil Ash]

Well this isn't a good start. Gonzo and the Dbacks blow a golden opportunity in the 1st of scoring and then Fossum gives up 2 runs in the 1st.

2-0 Braves after 1 inning
