Game #105: De La Rosa vs Bailey

Colorado Rockies at Cincinnati Reds, Jul 26, 2008 5:10 PM MDT



Next Game

Colorado Rockies
@ Cincinnati Reds

Saturday, Jul 26, 2008, 5:10 PM MDT
Great American Ball Park

Jorge De La Rosa vs Homer Bailey

Clear. Winds blowing out to center field at 5-10 m.p.h. Game Time temperature: Around 80.

 

Complete Coverage >



While last night's matchup featured two starters vying to tie Brandon Webb for first place in the NL wins standings, tonight's features two starters vying to get their ERA's under 6.00. It's quite a swing, and I'm not sure I'll want to watch the carnage for very long.

Go Rockies!

I'll venture a guess...

The carnage will be far worse for the men in red, and Bailey will live up to his namesake multiple times.

Rain delay

Anyone heard anything about how long this delay will be?

Also, re: Yorvit. Better to have him in there against a potentially sucky pitcher than in a game with a good pitcher.

This is a good night

JDLR looking good, Rox should extend the win streak, and, best of all,

We’re flying out from Texas (where we live & where it was 101 today w/ high humidity) to Denver tomorrow at 8 a.m. for 10 days in Estes Park & Lyons. I’ll even get the Rockies on TV instead of XM or Gamecast.

May the streak continue.

There is a bright side to the '08 season.

6 2/3 innings / 1 run (so far) from JDLR

That’s way more than can really be expected.

If Francis returns in good form, there might actually be 4 real starting pitchers.

Call me crazy

But it makes a tiny bit of sense. Let him pitch in a moderately leveraged situation. With Fuentes maybe on the trading block, it doesn’t hurt to see more of him.

Put me out of my misery. Please!

Bucky

Sounds like he’ll pitch the 9th, if the radio guys are right.

Yep

There he is.

Is it time to scoreboard watch again?

If so, Snakes just went up 2-1 on the Pygmies.

IMO

Let’s focus on righting our own ship on this road trip. If we succeed in doing that, then it will be time to scoreboard watch.

You're probably right

But it would be nice to be able to do that again & have it mean something.

Yorvit makes a weak backhanded stab

The lemur is damn good.

Also, he is a stinking machine. 9 pitches. Wow.

A sweep on the road would be SO nice.

Taylor B. handled the 9th pretty well

He may get some more chances in that inning in years to come.

I'm rather enjoying this.

And better yet, I see no reason why it can’t continue. Seems to me that things are finally clicking in unison. With Francis due back in five days (nice 4.2 IP in Tulsa tonight – 4 H, 1 R, 8 K, 0 BB) I suddenly think we could have a pretty decent front four in our rotation, and the lineup is really seeing the ball well.

That’s 8 of 9 out of the break. Keep rolling.

Staying on the sunny side of Blake Street since 1993.

by Franchise26 on Jul 26, 2008 8:36 PM MDT reply actions  

One thing I've noticed

Is that the guys don’t have the deer-in-the-headlights look when they come to the plate, as they did in the Mets series right before the break.

i go on vacation and i come back and we finally caught fire and are actually looking good….nicee

Josh Towers' line for the Sky Sox tonight:

2.0 IP, 10 H, 11 R (all earned) 2 BB, 2 K, 2 HR.

So it’s OK to scorebaard watch, right?

3-2 Giants over Snakes. Thank you Aaron Rowand.

Lincecum

Is amazing. 13 K’s, 0 BB in 7 IP.

Of course, the Giants bullpen can’t wait to blow this game.
