Opening. Day. Female. Odges.

I was listening to Pat and Ron on my Iphone and in about the 3rd inning I got a call and was interupted..and when I went back to the audio it would only let me select the Houston feed...did this happen to anyone else?

No. I was walking my dog with my little hand-held AM radio. I heard Pat's call. Steak. Then my phone rang and it was in my pocket. My dad wanted to whoop it up a little. So we did. Winner is Pizzeck.

Injury scare, dropped line drive, fan interaction that could have ended in a dead white kid.

Pretty good start.

When did this happen, and how did I miss it?

Uncle Milty chased a foul ball and stopped himself at the railing - at which point a young white man dressed in an oversized Cubs jersey reached out to give UM a handshake. UM responded by reaching out and shaking hands with the young man before heading back to right field.

It was fucking awesome.

Damn.  I don't know how I missed that, but it sure SOUNDS awesome.

I was a bit perplexed as to why Gathwrong was in CF for Fukudome and Bradley was still in RF in the 9th.  Was there some kind of double switch voo-doo that Lou pulled or something?

I think he's just trying to get Uncle Milty's 30 game injury out of the way early.

Am I the only retard that thought the 0 for 3 UM had at the plate was kinda impressive?     The results were shitty,  but the approach was great.   
You can tell he's played this game before.

If you throw out Opening Day, Bradley hasn't had one decent at-bat all season. And he's batting .000.

You're not the only one.  Though I'm sad that Aramis is all the way down to 5th in the order, I am pumped that Milt is hitting 4th.  Once Lou realizes Fontenot should be hitting second, that is going to be a formidable 1-6 (Soriano, Fontenot, Lee, Bradley, Ramirez, Soto).  Jesus, you could very easily get 150 home runs out of those guys alone.

Milton Bradley's every move is exciting to me. Watching him hit is a joy.

And Fontenot - holy shit. When he makes contact he murders the ball.

I actually stumbled upon something useful during our shoutbox mocking of NSBB.

Dude's gonna hit .240.

I was going to say, did Fontenot learn how to hit a curveball yet?
