Twice the fun today, since this afternoon's game is scheduled to be shown live on Fox Sports Arizona at 1pm, and then re-screened tonight on the MLB Network at 7pm [though it's possible that one may not be on in the Arizona area, since the schedule says "Subject to Blackout in Local Areas"]. Of course, if today's contest is like yesterday, Arizona fans will have as much interest in a re-run, as in tithing 10% of their income to fund Hohokam v2.0. Let's hope the pitching staff can keep things in check a bit better today - I'm hoping for something in the mid-to-high teens perhaps. Lowered Expectations, as Mad TV used to say.
This will also be the thread for discussion of SnakePit-Fest-SpringTraining-Palooza-Thon, due to take place at Tucson Electric Park tomorrow. Looking for someone to do the recap on that game, since we won't be home until 7pm or so.
Line-up and stuff after the jump.

Pitching: Dan Haren
Day off for Adam LaRoche, Kelly Johnson and Mark Reynolds. Not heard yet who is scheduled to pitch after Haren - if it's a repeat of Friday, this is likely a convincing facsimile of AJ Hinch talking to the bullpen...
