You would at least have the guy thinking about that the next time up.

I wonder if Ludwick will make contact. I wonder if we are going to let Gio dominate us. I wonder how far Bruce's 4th HR today will travel. Hmmm.

I get this too. In regards to thinking a homer will come from anything touched with a bat. That is known as GABP syndrome. Take a breath and think of Crosely Field.

Ludwick LO to RF

Me too, and I appreciate your updates. I look forward to Ryan Ludrock's next hit, sometime in May.

Yep and bat clean up too.

Just wondering...after yesterday's performance, why isn't Valdez leading off?
