He's won three of his last five games and posted a 2.51 ERA in that stretch. The difference? Better fastball command, balls are being hit at people, and he's throwing with more conviction.[/h3][/divclass][starting-lineup][divclass=away]

Lucroy's first career start at first.

[sauveb]

Rickie Weeks is now 6 for his last 57. On what planet is batting him leadoff considered a good idea?

The planet of RRR.

The planet of RRR.

 

I always knew he was from a totally different solar system.

[The stache]

Can the Scrubs get any luckier? Seriously. High chopper Bianchi can't get. Liner off of Peralta. Now Luc boots one.

 

And Wily isn't going after anybody.

 

Now Rizzo with the bases loaded. Peralta at 74 pitches. Bet nobody is up in the pen, either.

 

This game is spiraling out of control.

[The stache]

LOL, Starlin Castro just standing there at second as Bianchi makes a break for third. Did anybody see him spitting sunflower seeds? I swear that guy's head is out of the game more than any player I've ever seen.

 

Doesn't matter though, as Weeks comes up and grounds out weakly to end the inning. Thanks, Rickie.

[yfinn6]

Was that Verne Troyer in the stands?

[The stache]

Mini Me? Can he play third?

 

He might not have much vertical leap, but the guy would have about a 3 inch strike zone. Eddie Gaedel revisited.

 

He'd be an upgrade over Betancourt. Sign him!

[yfinn6]

Any word on when the game will be back on? I'm dying to watch a last place team come from a 4-run deficit.

[Bazinga]

Can the Scrubs get any luckier? Seriously. High chopper Bianchi can't get. Liner off of Peralta. Now Luc boots one.

 

 

So says the fan of the team that won three out of four in this series.
