Season thread-the road to the playoffs

[Lefty]

Screw the bullpen. 8-7 D-Backs. Unbelievable.

 

[Lefty]

The top of the 6th is finally over. 8-7 D-Backs. Need runs!

 

[Lefty]

Bautista gets a double with the bases loaded and brings in 2. It is now 10-7 with two on and no outs.

 

[Lefty]

Kata with a big 2-run hit and it is now 12-7.

 

[Lefty]

D-Backs win 12-7 and take the series. Props go to Sexson(2 homers), Kata, and Bautista. Also, Dessens pitched well after a shakey beginning. Now let's take at least 2 of 3 from the Cubs.

 

[BC867]

Sexson with his 2nd HR of the game (and also to the opposite field)..... It seems that he's getting a better selection of pitches now that Finley is hitting behind him in the order...

The Press quoted Brenly as saying that, if Finley starts hitting, he might put him back at leadoff.

Hey, if something wasn't working, then something else works, immediately announce that you're thinking about going back to the one that didn't work.

Simmer down, BB. Just let it be.

Are you serious? That is idiotic thinking on Brenly's part...Doesn't he realize the obvious that if Finley begins hitting at #5 is that his approach his better suited there? Also that Kata personifies the ideal lead-off hitter?

If Brenly actually does that, then he immediately any shred of credibility....

I say, if something is working dont tamper with it. If Sexson is getting better pitches now that Fins is behind him. THEN KEEP FINS BEHIND HIM. Regardless. The team needs to get their offensive woes behind them.

But....it is also not Brenly's fault that the same bullpen that kicked ass last year, is not one bit reliable yet this year...

 

[Lefty]

Randy looks good so far. Gets the Cubs out 1,2,3. The game is on in Tucson!

 

[Lefty]

Randy has 4 K's after 2 innings. 0-0 after 2.

 

[Lefty]

Randy strikes out the side again in the third. He has struck out 7 batters thru 3.

 

[Lefty]

Hammock doubles in Tracy who had already doubled to lead off the inning. 1-0 D-Backs!

 

[Lefty]

Cintron knocks in Hammock with a double. 2-0 D-Backs!

 

[Lefty]

Okay, Randy is faltering. He only had 1 K in the 4th. That makes it 8 thru four innings as the D-Backs lead 2-0.

 

[Lefty]

Danny extends his hitting streak to 18.

 

[Lefty]

Randy drives in a run. 3-0 D-Backs!

 

[Lefty]

Kata drives in a run with a hit. 4-0 D-Backs! No way do you bring back Alomar when he comes back.

 

[Lefty]

Randy is looking sharpe. If he can pitch like this all season they can contend.

 

[Lefty]

Tracy with a 2-run single with the bases loaded. 6-0 in the 5th! Brenly better keep tracy in this line-up.

 

[Brandon_Webb]

How are you watching it

 

[Lefty]

ESPN2 is showing it in Tucson. Wild pitch, 7-0.

 

[Lefty]

Holy Cow!!! Tracy with an unbelievable catch over the fence. He also made a nice diving catch in the same inning.

 

[Evil Ash]

HOLY #$%&! Sexson just hit it high off the scoreboard

WOW

 

[Lefty]

Sexson just hit a monster home run to make it 9-0. The home run hit the scoreboard. Wow! He broke a light on the scoreboard.
