disarmed

We lost this slugfest, but, on a more somber note, saw North Correia go south after only nine pitches. I'm hoping it isn't serious.

I didn't note the surprising victory from the day before. The kids came through. O'Sanchez out dueled Harang. Big hits from Lewis and Velez. Beauty.

Dusty's return home spoiled. He's widely disrespected, blamed for ruining arms and losing in 2002. I don't agree with any of it. I think he's an excellent Mgr. and would hire him in a second. Watch the Reds exceed expectations, as his teams often do.

Bengie had yesterday off, so I figure he'll homer today. But young Thomas Alva Edinson Volquez going for the Redlegs. That's a tough match-up. Especially with our "Ace" on the hill.
