    If CDick and WT could OBP .350 the rest of the year at 1/2.....this team would have a very good shot at making the playoffs.

    I'm guessing the umps want to get this one in. Is bad weather approaching, I'd guess?

    Micah is working ahead of most hitters and getting 1st pitch strikes. While it's not the end-all-be-all, it definitely helps things out. Good to see!
