Gameday Thread: 3/17 vs. Angels
With this afternoon's game being broadcast on the MLB Network, it's time to boot up the Gameday Thread and see what ensues. Be hoping for a better pitching performance from Kennedy than we got from our other new arrival yesterday. We beat the Angels 4-1 last Thursday, Jackson and a posse of relievers holding them to six hits in Tucson, so a repeat of that would be fine. I wouldn't mind a brawl too, what with this being on national television 'n' all - might solidify our hardcore credentials.
Lineup after the jump, first pitch a little after 1pm, Arizona time.
- Stephen Drew SS
- Conor Jackson LF
- Justin Upton RF
- Adam LaRoche 1B
- Mark Reynolds 3B
- Miguel Montero C
- Kelly Johnson 2B
- Chris Young CF
- Chris Snyder DH
Pitching: Ian Kennedy, T.J. Beam, Josh Ellis, Leo Rosales, Aaron Heilman and Jordan Norberto
One wonders how close this might be to the Opening Day line-up for Arizona - obviously, without the DH [though it'd be nice if the Padres let us use that - not that we should need the added help].

We are having corned beef tonight
We had various bits of regalia, but forgot all about them – we had to rush out of the house and go to the bank, because SnakePit Towers v2.0 may be nearing acquisition…

"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
Single to left by Upton
Two on, one out for Laroche.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
Bouncer to the mound
And it’s through! 1-0, D-Backs!
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
Shallow fly to right by Mark
But runners can’t advance.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
And Miggy grounds out to end the inning
But a 1-0 lead in the middle of the first.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
D'oh
Leadoff hit is just past J-Up’s glove and rolls to the wall for a triple.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
Second hit to the wall
Kennedy is getting hit hard to start off. RBI double ties it up.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
And 2-1, Angels
As a two out hit is just out of LaRoche’s reach.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
Wow
The Guiness record for the largest gathering of people wearing a fleece blanket? This is what the Angels are trying to set during the season.
Kinda puts those complaints about the hot dog condiment races into a new light.

"It felt like I was throwing hard as hell," he said, recalling a throwing session he had with teammate Dan Haren on Sunday in Surprise. "It felt like I was throwing 95… I was letting it go almost all the way. I felt like I had more left in the tank even. It was good, really good."

Two run homer by... some guy for the Angels
This game isn’t going well so far.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
It might have been Rosales?
I got distracted by college stuff, so I wasn’t paying attention. Sorry.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
and it was right as the announcers were talking about his K record too lol.
How is that post charmer? lol
Nice strikeout!
Brandon Allen running for Montero
shades of TC34 pinch running a couple years ago? lol
Nice strikeout!
It did happen once...
As I recall. Let me see if I can find it.

Heh....

Hurt.
The D-backs experienced a scare in the eighth when right fielder Justin Upton was struck in the head by an errant pickoff throw while diving back to first base. The ball struck Upton just below his protective batting helmet, slightly behind and below his right ear. Upton at first tried to get up to possibly advance to second, but once he got to one knee, he fell back down to the ground in obvious pain. He was removed from the game and said afterward that he was feeling better and did not think he had suffered a concussion.

It was also the game Drew hit for the cycle.

I’ve got a friend who lives in Chicago (every time I talk to her, I tell her “Make fun of a Cubs fan for me”) and one of her co-workers wants to buy some White Sox tickets for her boyfriend, but wasn’t sure when the season started. My friend decided it’d just be easier to text me and ask when Opening Day was, rather than try to look it up online.

Double for Abreu
That guy is having a pretty good Spring Training.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
And a stand-up triple for Gillespie!
Abreu scores to cut the deficit to 6-3.

I remember Shawn Green, of LAD, hit one against us in one game. I believe Womack was in RF.

Green also hit the most boring Grand Slam I ever saw...
at least it was FOR us, not against

Dont strike out...
“and Brandon Allen would like to have a word with you after the game regarding his career path.”
Does that sound familiar lol
Nice strikeout!
that reminds me of an old game I used to play
High Heat MLB 2004
“He hit it DEEP! … but not deep enough. OUT.”
was so frustating…

That's why
you should only use “C” and “X”. It’s more precise.
Or else just stay in the kitchen.

Two out double for Gillespie
Can he hit for the cycle in the last three innings of the game?
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
Off the top of the wall!
Macias just misses a home run, but it’s a tie game!
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
If the error is on the pitcher, I still think it should be an earned run.
"Now we can just call you Kishi Laptop, Esquire."
The error was on the third baseman for dropping the out

That way,
you properly penalize the pitcher, but not in the proper manner — that is, they get dinged against their pitching prowess.

Hester hits a sac fly to center
And it’s 7-6, DBacks!
