PrintColorado Rockies at Arizona Diamondbacks, Sep 20, 2009 2:10 PM MDT
This is what a rubber game should be.
vs.
Rockies vs Diamondbacks coverage
At the time of writing, it looks like the Marlins will lose and the Braves are on their way. Randy Wolf will throw the first pitch against the Giants and Tim Lincecum about the same time Dan Haren throws the first pitch to Carlos Gonzalez today
Jason Giambi will start for Helton today anyway.

Duplicate question post from Rockpile
Optimistically, I want to purchase 1st round playoff tix. Right field box 108 not far from the bull pen. Never sat in that area, but wanted to get seats very close to the field for my nephew without spending a fortune.
Any feedback on those seats?
I like those seats out in right field
You’ll get baked while the sun is up, but they’re pretty good seats for the money.

but taxpayers who wouldn’t vote additional monies, legislator who wouldn’t find more money, and most of all, ownership who wouldn’t put up more of their own money ought to get more blame than “planners”

Poor Cougars
Tough loss this weekend for BYU
I watched the 1st half and part of the 3rd
couldn’t bear to watch anymore. They dropped 12 spots in the polls after that embarrassment.
I called FSU to beat BYU before the game started.

Jimenez is higher up the list this year, 7th most abused in 2009. In fact, he’s one slot above Tim Lincecum, by far and away last year’s abuse king, and we know how much Bruce Bochy is going to have to lean on him for the Giants’ playoff aspirations. Jason Marquis is 27th and Aaron Cook slips into the top 60.
I’m not sounding an alarm, but it is something to monitor. Jimenez has proved durable and elastic in his career, but that wiry frame may not hold up if leaned on too heavily. He has thrown over 100 pitches in 15 of his 16 starts (he tossed 91 in the other) and has thrown almost 44 IP in six June starts. It’s not Roy Halladay-esque, but Jimenez also doesn’t have the long-term evidence he can withstand such dependency.

Pretty much first date
for me and my now-wife was at a beer bar where they do not serve any light beer (or any macro at all, actually) and she’s, sadly, not much for the more interesting beers out there. Hefe and Belgian White got us through, but it was touch and go when she got the dirty look from the bartender after ordering an Amstel.
At least she likes beer
My gf can’t stand any. Though she’s into baseball and Scrubs, so two out of three ain’t bad.

yeah, I don't like it, but the alternative is kind of frustrating as well
Yorvy’s been doing good things lately, offensively at least, and while he can’t gun down runners, he’s hardly Mike Piazza.

Plus, since the Gold Glove involves offense
he’s 1st in batting average and 4th in wOBA among pitchers with 60+ PA. His Range Factor is 2.4, just behind Joel Pineiero and Jon Garland at 2.5. 1st in the majors in assists.
You know what? I think this is a damn good point. Start up the campaign wagon
