Arizona Diamondbacks at Atlanta Braves, May 24, 2008 3:55 PM EDT
Well we get to go up against the ugliest man to ever play major league baseball today! Thats right, Randy Johnson is pitching for the D-Backs. I will say I am surprised that he is doing as well as he has this year. I was under the impression that he had no cartilage left in his knees and that isn't a situation that is conducive to pitching in the Majors. Whatever. The sooner he gets his 300th win the sooner we don't have to look at him anymore.
The surprising Jorge Campillo will be throwing for the Braves. This dude just uses smoke and mirrors to get people out. I love it, but I don't know how long it will last. Today will be the best test because the D-Backs offense has some serious scrempf.
I think we really need to take the last couple of games in the series for the simple fact that this is one of the best teams in the league and we need to prove that we can run with the big boys. What we really need is for Tex to find his power stroke. I know he has been hitting much better lately but I want to see him hit 5 homers in a week so people will be even more afraid to pitch to him and Chipper. Chipper is hitting .415 by the way. Maybe we should do some kind of poll where we guess what day Chipper finally drops below .400 for good. I'll have to run it by Gondeee.

Ironically
This is the one game where I feel we have the best chance. Yes, the game featuring the last guy who pitched the last Perfect Game, in our home, no less. Since all other teams’ fans are so quick to point out our “old farts” in Smoltz and Glavine, I will be the one to mention that Johnson is older than both of them, and his velocity and stuff in general has been on the same natural downward progression as all other farts.
The Dbacks haven’t seen Revolucion, and this may or may not work to our advantage. Not to go on the John Madden scale of obvious quotes, but this is a game, in which we have to score some freaking runs. Watching last night’s game, Arizona is too athletic, too fast, and too talented to beat in a grinder-game. We don’t have the luxury of Smoltz this time around to stop them. Pretty much every player on their team brings speed, and the most glaring thing from last night was Yunel making the great diving stop, but by the time he was even close to a throwing position, the runner was on 1st. And we all know that Yunel has a Wurlitzer for an arm.
Anyway, I’m blabbing – I’ll be around for the game, despite the gorgeous Atlanta weather this game would be; too much home-errands and packing to do, so I’ll be getting tipsy with the home folks later on.

I agree
This the game the D-Backs don’t shape up well on paper. RJ is inconsistent about allowing runs but has been consistent in allowing hits. Alternatively, D-Backs have trouble with pitchers who they haven’t seen before. So, if the D-Backs pull this out then it will be a gift. On the other hand, Owings will hit for the cycle tomorrow and Webb will pitch his own perfecto on Monday. So have fun today Braves fans!

Smoltzie to pitch..
...in Tennessee tonight in a rehab appearance. I would drive up to Knoxville to the game, but it’s almost as far as going to Atlanta, so I guess not. Too bad it’s not against Chattanooga instead; I would be there. I’ve been to the Smokie’s park once—not really at the game, but watched the last inning or so. We were camping in a KOA-type campground, saw bright lights through the trees, walked over and were looking down on right field. It’s not actually in Knoxville, but sort of out in middle of nowhere off the interstate. I love baseball.

He was seen swinging helplessly in his basement flailing around and missing every pitch. Good humored guy to do that commercial.

Says "Arizona"
Only goofy teams like the Orioles and Cardinals wear the team name on both road and away.
And Colorado wears their road blacks at home, for superstition.

Home teams dictate the jerseys, although it would be impressive to see the home whites in other cities.

He's worried about extras
I’ll tell you something, I was at the Pirates game that went 13 innings. You would think there was a walk-off homer in the bottom of the 13th, but it was just McCann being called to pinch-hit. That’s why.

Sooo...
I totally understand the call on Yunell at first base. There is not much arguing the fact that he was inside the baseline. My problem with the ruling is not Yunell being called out but with Kotsay having to come back to 1st. How on a play where the defensive team is obviously coceding the out at first on a FC does the lead runner have to return to the base he was forced from. Regardless of whether or not the ball hit Yunell at 1st Kotsay was going to be safe at 2nd. Im sure its in the rule book but that needs to be changed!!!
