Wow...nice catch. Big Z spit his gum out.

[ToupeeOnFire]

What can't Matt Murton do?

The Reds announcer is surprisingly critical of Reds players given it's opening day.

 

"This is when overanxiousness, more often than not, causes Kearns to swing at a pitch out of the zone."

I think the first inning has solidifed me purchasing a Murton jersey shirt.

[Rob]

It's a good thing Canseco wasn't in left or we'd have a tie game.

[Jehrico]

Murton! Robbed the grand slam to end the inning!

[Soul]

On Gameday it's showing pitches almost off the screen.

 

Is he really that out of control?

 

I'm watching MLBTV, and he's mostly just barely missing.

 

I'm calling Gameday anti-Cub BIAS!! :evil:

 

 

:wink:

[Fro]

Murton = a stud

[MeatampPotatoesMan]

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Time for Z's wrath at the plate

[fiver]

It's a good thing Canseco wasn't in left or we'd have a tie game.

 

:lol:

[Shilzzz]

[Jehrico]

Murton giveth, and he taketh away!

[Guest]

[WrigleyinEngland]

Big MUUUUUUUUUUT!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man if i had a heart problem i'm gone after theses 2 innings 161 to go??? u got to be kidding me, i'm not making game 50!!!!!!

[C.C.]

Why is it that our starters all have to have 30+ pitches 1st innings?

[frostwyrm]

Murton should retire now.

[erik316wttn]

I guess we know who the REAL gem in the Nomar trade was.

[transplanted_suburbanite]

Wow...nice catch. Big Z spit his gum out.

 

Actually the gum was so scared of Z it jumped out of his mouth.
