New ballgame. Let's start a new, good streak in the misbegotten, mosquito-and-shitty-margarita-sodden state that God forgot.

I know tonite's game pits Johan against Josh Johnson, but I don't know much else about thine enemy. Who will enlighten me?

Yes, but what lineup are the Marlins planning to use? And how have they performed of late? And what manner of sexual innuendo can be made from their names? Would that I had more information about these opponents, or-- failing that-- more dick jokes and/or humorous photographs loosely related to said opponents.

So, Gary and Keith do the usual game-opening rag on the Marlins' awful defense and, like clockwork, Chris Coughlin makes a diving, hit-saving catch to start the game.

That was like a slow-motion replay of a double play, but in real time. Nicely turned by Ike, however.

Dabidrye makes a nice diving play to limit the damage in the third, which itself was helped along by a Johan throwing error on an attempted sac bunt by Josh Johnson. Defense giveth...

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr

Re: IGT Fish-Fry Thursday: @ Florida, 5/13

... and continues to give. Nice plays by Reyes (on a Ross grounder) and Pagan (going back on a Paulino fly hit over his head) mark a 1-2-3 4th from Jo... which follows one from Josh Johnson. It appears there's some settling-in going on.

That was some quick work by Johnson on the bottom of our order. I sure hope Cartier gets a start this series.

Johnson tries to field a Reyes grounder barehanded, and it ends up a two-base error. 'Parently, it's a little sting-y. Bay, who's stung it twice in two ABs, is your batter.

Two base error, or single plus error? It looked like he would have been safe on first either way.

[quote="Chad Ochoseis":38un2nht]Two base error, or single plus error? It looked like he would have been safe on first either way.[/quote:38un2nht] Two-base error is how they see it. And speaking of seeing, Bay goes down watching a Johnson fastball.

Re: IGT Fish-Fry Thursday: @ Florida, 5/13

With Reyes not hitting and Bay probably capable of getting the run in from third, I was OK with the bunt strategy in this case. The execution, different story.

Edgy DC

Re: IGT Fish-Fry Thursday: @ Florida, 5/13

Totally not OK with it. Reyes was perfectly capable of advancing the runner by accident. Implicit message to your team: "You're not capable of cashing in on this opportunity, even with the heart of the order comign up. Let me see if I can cover for you by finding a bullshit way to win this game by making outs."

Hot headed Jerry hating aside, why did 3B coach (Hall, I guess is his name) have to run down to the plate and talk to Reyes. Was there a missed sign or something. I was only half listening.

Re: IGT Fish-Fry Thursday: @ Florida, 5/13

Reyes showed yesterday that he couldn't execute a sac bunt, but since it's the 9th, give it one shot. He Then looked horrible, so since he's fast, he's batting lefty... let him swing the frigging bat. He only had one swing. Kong76--Reyes looked upset. It looked like Chip was trying to focus him.

If you can't expect Reyes to advance the runner in that situation, then he shouldn't be batting third. At this point, why isn't he batting eighth?
