Nowhere to go but up now

This sounds just like how I feel about SF right now. Except for most of the bullpen. But we need some sluggin' this season!

Have to post- the Giants v Phillies game last night was unbelievable! Cain v Lee- 0-0 to the end of 9. Then in the bottom of the 11th, the Baby Giraffe scores off of a hit by Melky Cabrera!!

Phenomenal pitching by both starters- good to see Cain is earning all that $! Now, if Linecum can get his groove going!

The World Champions are here this weekend. (The Cardnials)

As always, they play finess baseball and we were not able to beat them. The Cardnials were able to keep many players by not keeping Albert Pujols and I will continue to view them as a contender for the world series again.

One more thing I couldn't help but notice. The team, over-all, seemed more relaxed with out Tony LaRussa. Still very disciplined, but I saw some
*smiles*!!

Game time tonight it's expected to be 46 degrees.

Probably will be right up there again- but.... my Giants are going to be too!

Great win for the Yankees at Red Sox's Fenway Park yesterday.

Rather appropriate, in a historical context, that they were able to ruin Fenway Park's 100th anniversary celebrations, given the long-shadow that they've cast on Red Sox fortunes during the past 100 years.

*sarcastic* .. and just waiting for them to start!

I expected a bit of a slow start this year for the Sox. Front office changes, new manager, almost half the roster is new folk, spent the off season dumping salaries and replacing them with has beens and never were's.

So, now we have a lackluster team that is just not gelling. If they hit, the pitching is atrocious. If they pitch well, the bats are nowhere to be found.

Kind of wonder if they could beat the Bad News Bears at this point.

Nor'easter this weekend. Maybe it will clear out the bad karma.

That was an awesome game for Yanks fans. Down 9-0 in like the 5-6th? Then come back and win? Wow.

Go Phillies !!!! I like the Cards too !!! And the YANKEES!!! I love listening to weekday afternoon games on the radio at work. Time just flies by. It's the Cardinals baseball station that I pick up, the only one I can pick up on my radio. The main reason I like the cards, I know every player. ha
