It'd get awfully messy on the field with two games at once. If the two games weren't in sync, and say the Rockies pitcher was on the mound as the same time as Dickey, would they try to bump each other to mess them up in the other game? Would that count as interference?

If both batters were left-handed, would one have to bat righty so they could both fit at the plate?

Boy do I love that version of It Takes Two. One of my top of all-time. Marvin absolutely kills it, especially in the second verse. Then listen to Kim at 2:32 get a jump on the chorus with that one word -- "Yeah." Chills every time I hear it.

Terry swung pretty hard at that 9-2 prediction, if by some chance we go 2-9 in this stretch, what then! Yikes.

It would've been tricky/nigh impossible for Murphy to get enough on the throw to get Tulo while coming across the bag (he was headed toward third). Reyes running in that direction did the trick-- complete with under-control sidearm sling to avoid any possible breakup from the runner.
