Game #105: De La Rosa vs Bailey
Colorado Rockies at Cincinnati Reds, Jul 26, 2008 5:10 PM MDT
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.
Drew Goodman
says the delay shouldn’t last long. But since he has no meteorology creds that I know of, who knows?
Put me out of my misery. Please!
They said it should be about 20 minutes.

The funniest thing
is how serious he sounded during the first part. I was all waiting for some amazing statistic. And then he pays it off with the JDLR comment and I cracked up.
15 hits, 14 singles
I think this game is the definition of a) failing with RISP, and b) pecking them to death.

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.

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.
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.
