Tommy Hunter takes the mound for Texas.
Bunt out to start the game for Texas, then a bloop single to right center. One on and one out.
The inevitable Travis Wood/Cliff Lee comparisons are underway. Still seems a bit unfair to hang that on Wood.
Fly out to LF for second out, Nelson Cruz up with a runner on first.
A stolen base puts a Texas runner on second, and then Cruz bloops a hit to CF.
1-0 Texas.
Double to the wall from new Texas 1b Moreland (oppo field to left center) plates Cruz. 2-0 Texas. Reds pitchers getting mighty tired of the Arizona air at this point I would guess.
Wood's radar gun readings are friendly, he's been at 92 and sitting at 90 with his fastball.
And a nasty change Ks Chris Davis for the third out.
2-0 Rangers middle of 1.
Reds taking their cuts off of Tommy Hunter. With my main fantasy live auction draft set for Saturday, I will be scouting Mr. Hunter.
First pitch groundout from Bruce. Clearly this Hunter guy is the spiritual heir to Catfish, and I should spend $50 fantasy dollars on him.
Jeff Brantley confirms he has been on cow-tipping excursions. Surprising no one.
Tommy Hunter continues his Catfish homage, Ks Valakia.
Joey V in mid-season form with the cup adjustment.
Tommy Hunter (consults media guide, sees "MVP" next to Votto) proceeds to walk Votto on four pitches.
Two outs, one on for Rolen.
Hunter, still amazed at Votto's magnificence, hits Rolen. First and second, two outs, Gomes up.
The outcome of this at-bat, will, of course, launch 54 Gomes threads on ORG.

Bad form, 757, calling Jeff Brantley a liar. Now Brantley will have to find you and punch you in the nose.
For the record, in those 54 Gomes threads to be launched, edabbs will claim he isn't a Gomes fan in each. He will be lying when he does so.
