A little random game time blogging

Funny how the Nationals players have been complaining because RFK Stadium is too big and Mets players hit four homeruns today. Speaking of homers, I'm really looking forward to the Reds coming into town April 24-26. Hopefully, Reds sluggers will also prove wrong the whiny Nats without bats. When you stink, you stink; no need to go blaming it on everything else. I mean, when you have the bases loaded and no outs and don't score, you have no right to complain.

I love Wrigley field and its day games, which I watch regardless of how much work I have to get done. (It's too bad, though, that the Nats and Reds are playing at the same time when there are too few afternoon games for me to watch anyway.) Eric Milton is looking good so far. So are those balls Cincy keeps hitting over the brick wall. Oh, shoot, I spoke too soon! Guy in blue hits one out. Milton gets out of the inning, though.

Checking Nats score, 13-3. [rolls eyes] (Yes, it is a bit disheartening. Yes, I am bitter.)

Check out David Wright's blog. Should be fun to read throughout the season.

Gotta love those Reds bombs. Kearns pretty much put this one away with his three run bomb, Reds up 8-3. Ok, I know that we're into our bullpen, so nothing is safe.

Steve just said that Eric Milton has 11 unearned runs this year. Eleven! My god! And so far, 14 errors on the season? Errors, bullpen...why? How can we have such an awesome offense that will lead the world in homers this year and no one to play in the field? We've had amazing starting pitching thus far, a quality start EVERY start. Woohoo! Good pitching on the Reds? Can it last?

Jason Isringhausen blew his second save of the week, Cards lose.

...and this one belongs to the Reds!

Baseball - what a fantastic sport and yet, in Malta we dont hear much about it even though we have a national team. It is not popular in Europe :(

ah, but give it time. the World Baseball Classic was a huge success this year, and Europeans really do love their sport.
