Clearly the toughest matchup of the series. Of course, we have John Buck and they don't, so that's worth something.

Day off for Ike.

[list=1][*]Cowgill, cf[/*:m]
[*]Murphy, 2b[/*:m]
[*]Wright, 3b[/*:m]
[*]Buck, c[/*:m]
[*]Byrd, rf[/*:m]
[*]Duda, lf[/*:m]
[*]Turner, 1b[/*:m]
[*]Tejada, ss[/*:m]
[*]Gee, p[/*:m][/list:o]

You might expect Duda to slide up to first when Ike has the day off. But you'd be wrong. Because what you're not thinking about is that Terry <3's Turner.

I'm glad they are not putting Duda all over the place. Let him learn left at his own pace, which very well could take the remainder of his career. I love Turner too. Get that boy some at bats. He fills in every infield spot almost effortlessly, like hes playing in a softball game or something. I think he should almost always be first choice when one of our reg infielders needs a rest.(*braces for fallout)

Messy,messy,smelly,stinkie inning. Dudas throw was a tough break. When your throw hits the runner its gotta be pretty close to a good throw. Gee is just falling apart now. Yea, give an RBI hit to their pitcher. Rollins doubles....

Not only does Gee deserves an F for tonight but he can't even blame it on his D, and even though his C gets him two quick runs back, he'll Be on the bench for the rest of the game as we hope for an A effort from the pen and the bats.

I guess that was a passed ball. I'm really impressed with what I'm seeing from Murphy so far. Esp the power. If he can swing for lift or swing for liner at will he will be another Ted Williams. Only get one run outta that? Booo

I will agree with that 100%. I like the other two guys (esp back when they worked with Harry). Sarges voice is not suited for announcing of any kind. It's more suited to read fairy tales to kids before bedtime.

On a team more laden with expectations, Valdespin would be a real BP-raiser.

Watch as [crossout:8x1iupdn]the Fox News Network[/crossout:8x1iupdn] SNY covers this story as getting mastered by Cliff Lee and not Gee crapping the bed. I think, with the exception of failing to capitalize on the threats in the 1st and 2nd, this was an OK effort vs. Lee. A decent effort from the starter makes this a game.

I'll disagree. Leave Duda be. Muffy or Baxter. I feel this is the season that Duda has to break through or not and I'm afraid that anything out of the routine will screw him up him. I'm not worried about Murphy in that regard. He's gonna be fine at second as long as any alt pos is in the infield.
