Very close to the opening day lineup, I am guessing

Very close to the opening day lineup, I am guessing

I'd guess the difference would be Friedl in place of Casali. With any of the OF or Votto sliding to DH.

Seems like we don't get near as many members following the game if it's not televised.

Wish they would make more of a point to televise the game with the green uniforms

Thanks Ron, greatly appreciated. Friday night game with no TV is a tough one to do play by play on. Nice to be able to check in on this thread in the innings I couldn’t listen to.

[Bourgeois Zee]

Dominant game from Ashcraft-- the K's auger well for a better sophomore season.

Assuming health, I like Ashcraft to put up some real numbers this year.
