Baseball

Okay its Wednesday afternoon and I'm doing nothin cept being lazy. I notice on MLB is a Nationals-Marlins game in the 9th with Florida leading 6-3. Now I like the Nats they are full of ex-reds. I tune in on my direct tv and wallah the game. The first week of the season is comped so I look foward to this each year. yesterday I watched a Pirate-Cardinal game.
Well the Marlin hurler is Matt Lindstrom who throws 97mph. He is trying to be a closer this year. He faces Elijah Dukes and walks him, then the next guy is gets an infield hit and with one out the bases are loaded. The batter is ex-Red Adam Dunn. Now Adam is a power hitter but he has a keen eye at the plate. This cat and mouse game goes on for at least 8 pitches. Dunn fouls off several fastballs and finally gets a walk to make the game 6-4. Next up is former Marlin Josh Willingham, who gets about 5 pitches himself before striking out. Now Lindstrom has trown 30 pitches and thats not good for a closer. Okay two down bases full and Austin Kearns up (another ex-Red).He takes two pitches before linning a bullet to leftfield. Brett Carroll leaps full out straight and makes the catch and save the game. Marlins win 6-4. This little confrontation is one reason why I like baseball. That was exciting and cool to watch. I love this game.
