I know it was only the first game of the year, but still for a team that has had 14 straight losing seasons, that was a big win last night. Duke kept us close, good defense and timly hitting. LaRoche however didn't look too good last night, I thought Eldred was playing at times.

Yeah, I missed the game due to prior commitments(OSU being in the Nat'l title game). But it's definately the way the season needed to start. McLouth and Bay bothing coming through in the clutch is the perfect way to start the year.

Ian Snell's not white?

Whoa


Second, I'd slap NYGF because he just seems to have it coming for him. I swear man you wouldn't last 5 minutes in California before you got your ass kicked. So I'd be doing him a service too. -hot corner gurl

Aaaaand X comes through again tonight and we're 2 for 2, with 2 comeback wins(against Wheeler and Lidge, too), not bad.

Great start fellas! Nice winning. Nady did it all for you tonight. Then Snell fanning 11 in six innings? Where did he come from? WOW!

Excellent start to the season. Shut those critics up fellas!

LaRoche is still a dissapointment though. He needs to get some hits tonight to stem the tide.

Yeah, I forgot about LaRoche...flying out to center with 2 on and 1 out. Luckily Paulino and X bailed him out.

It's kind of early to be calling anyone a disappointment. Wait a month at least.

Hey, Tom looked real good too, after a shaky spring. This team has me intrested early on. 3 games, 3 saves for Torres, too.
