It looked like Castellanos was playing Tucker toward right-center. Strange positioning when Nola is throwing breaking stuff.

Looks like Nola is starting to feel the pressure again

Great job by Nola to work around that double/hbp.

[zambonir]

Pitching

[LoneStarPhan]

Rollins and Utley, back together for the pregame tonight.

[zambonir]

gonna have to watch that later.

Last night Chase, Howard and Raul Ibanez's kids all dance on the dugout with the Phanatic and when they cut to Chase up stairs my wife didn't recognize him (he had a hat on).

[el-pietro]

Only concern is that Nola is already at 36 pitches, but the key bullpen arems are fully rested so not as big a concern as it might otherwise be.

[JaxBill]

Smoltz. to me is the baseball Tony Romo. Makes a bunch of really good points but talks so much that I have to mute sometimes.

Bryce Harper walks.

[el-pietro]

I think he has changed his appearance more than most of the 2008 team, he seems to have embraced the LA life, not many wrinkles on that face.

He was at a watch party in Passyunk Avenue in London last Friday for game 1. By the time I found it the only flights were equiavlent to flying trans-atlantic and I was gutted. He is the literal rason I love baseball. Hes living over there now though so maybe hell do something for the London games next year (cubs/cardinals).

[EastFallowfield]

1) Same look he had at the 2008 Parade 2) We often saw him with a hat on!
