Just got back from the game and all I can say is, God damn that blonde at Sliders has a great body. I was there 2 hours longer than I planned to be.

Oh yeah, nice offense tonight.

I can't really argue with you....I don't really see him pitching any better than he did tonight.

I remember seeing him here at Chase a couple years ago. Of course it was 2004 and we sucked. But still...he looked dominant, and definitely had more velocity.

This is not the same guy.

Juan....very nice meeting you tonight. Too bad the time was so short.
We'll have to do it right one of these days.

I was actually pretty pleased with what I saw out of Livan last night. 4 runs is heads and shoulders above what Vargas or Cruz were being expected to give up, so the offense was just a little TOO relaxed with their new pitchers, and I expect with Webb we should get those bats swinging again.

I missed last nights game. Want to know from anyone that was there what they thought of Josh Johnson. My scout loves the kid and thinks he will become an ACE someday. Is his stuff that good? What did you think?................

Also nice meeting more new people last night. Evil Juan and his daughters. Also a lurker from El Paso. I'm still trying to think of that Red Headed Point Guard THE BEAR had on his team back in the late 80's early 90's when I was doing Lobo games. All I can think of is his PIT nickname Opie, Opie........................

Hey, Scott!

BTW, can appreciate the "bailing out yer Jeep" situation. The monsoon hit our area pretty good last night, about an hour-and-a-half after getting home from the game. Good thing, too, as we had four different sets of windows whose track drains were plugged, and so the windows were flooding. Once we got the drains cleared, all was well... But it took a bit of time to get all four windows fixed up! Today, we have a small lake in the back yard...

OK, as noted earlier, when yer out in the RF bleachers, ya ain't gonna see much of the actual pitches thrown. But, based on the results, after a few innings, I was thinking of Johnson, "Who is this guy?" He consistently was getting ahead of batters - lots of 0-2 and 1-2 counts - and IIRC, four of his six K's were called third strikes. That, and the lack of any significant well-batted balls against him strongly suggests he was foolin' our guys pretty badly.
