Spent this morning lying in bed watching Alfred Hitchcock's Notorious with the missus, so this is getting posted quickly before today's game, with a review of yesterday to follow. It's a youthful D'backs line-up, especially in the outfield where it goes Jackson, Terrero, Tracy: no room for the slumping Gonzalez at all.
With Russ Ortiz on the mound, this will be a bit of a challenge. But Tony Clark is playing, so we know we'll get at least two home-runs and four RBI there, going by his average performance so far in this series! Early comments to follow from me, then an interruption as I head to work.
