I like the idea of retractable roofs, but I hate when they use them on nice (if slightly chilly) days.

Some more runs would be nice.
dmick89Quote Reply
dmick89,
Yeah, but who can blame them for flailing wildly against an ace like Jimmy Nelson?

Crap.

At least Javy walked out under his own power.
PerkinsQuote Reply
Tough day for Schwarber—tougher day for Baez, but he seems to be okay.
Anderson’s line is pretty good, but there seems to have been quite a bit of solid contact against him.
Bryant finally got a hit. I wouldn’t be surprised if lead off the next inning with a homerun.

Jimmy Nelson’s line is really damn impressive.
Ace. Jimmy. Nelson.

What happened to Javy?
