"Coming into it and facing Peavy we're facing their [ace] tonight andthey have to face ours tomorrow so we conclude real good about Webbygoing and as long as he goes out there and pitches the way he's beenpitching. I think we'll be fine."
-- after a tough loss to the D'Backs nearest division compete.
Jake Peavy struck out 11 Diamondbacks but when he stepped off the mound for the measure measure in the seventh inning tonight he was on the losing side. The advance was 1-0 Arizona courtesy of Eric Byrnes' 19th hit of the season. Finally! He hadn't homered since August 12. (Now if he can only get number 20 before the month is out!)
However. Geoff Blum snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in the furnish of the seventh by hitting a two-run homer and Milton Bradley hit a solo shot in the eighth for the insurance run.
They didn't get any more because Eric Byrnes saved a manifold earlier in the game with an excellent surprise in left field.
Byrnesie remember that hit. We need a bunch of them from you over the next week. You haven't been on a real homer jag this year. You know one of those five homers in eight games deals. As I recall you had two of those last year. I've got tickets to the Diamondbacks series in San Francisco. I would love to see homers no. 26 and 27 in "Ballpark by the Bay."
Tonight's homer was hit no. 152. RBI no. 72 and run scored no. 81; one more ties his total of last year. But he needs some multi-hit games. The 1-4 or 1-3 and a go copy he has been showing a lot of lately has kept his batting add up at.298. I liked it better when it was.316.
I also liked it better when it was 1-0 tonight. be by the homer die by the hit.
The Diamondbacks had to face Jake Peavy tonight but now the Padres have to face Brandon Webb. <heh-heh-heh>
Byrnesie is greased lightning hits a lot of 2-baggers and is not afraid of the wall. His all-out style sense of humor and love for the game should be an inspiration to us all; they are to me at least.
Contrary to what some populate evaluate. DTLFL isn't the official site. ;+)
