Not a lot of pre-game news to report today. If you’re listening to FSN announcers, you’re likely to hear Dick complaining about the hot weather since that is kind of his pet complaint lately. I keep trying to figure out how to send him the message that baseball is a summer game but yeah, if he hasn’t figured that out by now… But it is pretty warm for a day game – temps will be in the mid to high 90’s and I have to admit that I would be loath to be too overly active out in the sunshine in those temps. I always respect the folk who do even if they’re playing a game.
So let’s hope Blackburn is able to put some good stuff to work today!

That was just ugly.. It seemed to fit the whole series which pretty much sucked. Starting pitching wasn’t good enough, bullpen wasn’t good enough, and hitting wasn’t good enough..
Ouch.
