Fernandez/Cingrani = watching closely.

 

[MantMaris]

Yovani Gallardo 2 Run HR. 5-0 Brewers.

Now Lucroy with a 2 Run HR. There is one to look up. How many times in history have the starting pitcher and catcher homered in the same game?

 

[uniquebaseballcards]

Cain with another rough start early in the season.

 

[Waxov]

Verlander set to go soon. he will be facing 7 #9 hole hitters in 1 lineup.. could be interesting.

Give that man a beer....oh wait....

Give him some juice. Nah, that doesn't work either in a baseball context LOL

Love when pitchers hit dingers.

 

[WaxPax]

Game time temperature of Rockies Mets game is 28 degrees...that is just wrong

MATT WIETERS walk Off Grand Slam in the 10th! 10-6
O's take another series from the Rays.
Rays hit 9 HR's in the series and lose.

 

[Superfractor]

Not sure what's up with the Rockies, but I'm very happy. Hope it continues.

Niiice!

Sox win as well, yet another sweep...now they are headed back to Boston for the first time since the tragic incident. Buchholz vs Shields will be a VERY good matchup.

Yeah who would have thought? Very good to see!

It was nice to see the DBacks hold on for the win today. And although I thought they needed to move Upton to clear the air before the season, it is a lil funny to see what he's doing...

[chuckbartowski]

Both Uptons homered for the Braves, Chris Johnson also homered, and leads MLB with a .438 avg! Evan Gattis with the go ahead 2-run pinch hit homer. Braves with 29 homers as a team now. Maybe even more amazing is that it took Kimbrel 8 games to finally strike out the side.

 

[Topnotchsy]

Lester now 3-0.

 

[Krom]

Lester now 3-0.

Best start of his career.
