5-0

[soccer10k]

This is looking like it's going to be a short start for Marmol. Ugh.

[soccer10k]

Rusch on the DL with tennis elbow? What happened? Did he blow the elbow out lifting his buffet platter?

 

Is he really on the DL?

Yep, just what you want during a double-header. Bullpen is gonna be taxed today. :x

[ToupeeOnFire]

Did Larry Rothschild come out at any point in that inning to talk to Marmol? Just curious.

[Mizzou]

Who is starting the 2nd game?

I think they are just going to leave him in their today, you dont want to go into game 2 with a guy making his big league debut and no pen. Unless of course he cant get his pitch count under control.

Wasn't Mateo???

[Chocolate Milk]

His pitch count is already at 38 so they won't be able to leave him in too long if the game continues this way.

Yeah, but it took awhile.

 

I think it was right before the triple (but not positive).

[abuck1220]

it hasn't been just today...i think len and bob have commented on it before. i'm just mad that he's played enough for anyone to even notice it.

[Dr. Cub]

Does Marmol hit 100 pitches by the end of this inning?

[E.J.]

This is sad, but funny to watch. :lol:
