Contrary to expectation, today could see the end of Tankapalooza, if the team can complete the sweep over the Rockies this afternoon at Chase, behind the arm of Daniel Hudson. The Rockies have never seen him, while the Diamondbacks did a good job of getting to Chacin when we faced him in July - he was tagged with the loss, allowing six hits, three walks and three earned runs in 5.2 innings, though did strike out eight Arizona hitters. Here's today's line-up, as we go for the purple jugular.

  1. Stephen Drew SS
  2. Justin Upton RF
  3. Kelly Johnson 2B
  4. Chris Young CF
  5. Adam LaRoche 1B
  6. Mark Reynolds 3B
  7. Gerardo Parra LF
  8. John Hester C
  9. Dan Hudson RHP

Kishi recap after this one, which reminds me; next Sunday is a loosely-scheduled Zephon/IHSB recap, but I'm not sure if either wants/is able to do it. Failing that, anyone else interested?
