Wednesday Night At The Dome










For Allan's pics from game one of this series, click here.
About this game: I got to hear it all on radio, until the bottom of the ninth, when I got to see Pap get the save. This was my first time listening to Glen Geffner for a long period of time. He definitely reminds me of the announcer from The Natural. Kind of a train-of-thought style. Low-key--just what Castig was looking for in a partner, I think. He jinxed Mirabelli, though, and I know that everyone listening, including Joe, knew it was coming. He went into this speech about how Doug hadn't allowed a passed ball yet this season, and how much better you fell having him back there with Wake on the mound. I'm goin,' "Come on, kid, at leat do this when he's at bat so there's no chance of an immediate passed ball..." Sure enough, next pitch: "And it's off Mirabelli's glove and rolling to the backstop!" The wise-man Castiglione chimes in with "It never fails, does it?"
Wake is on fire. I love our staff. Tavarez actually gets a shot tomorrow afternoon. More pics from Allan then, too.

Jere, you are right on so many counts. Allan, great pics with such great full-size resolution. And Jere, Wakes WAS economical and sharp as a tack. I enjoyed. Day baseball....possible pitching mismatch? We'll see....it's time to score 8 runs. A tall order against Halladay, but.........to be continued, in about 8 hours.
All of the recent RSFPT photos & postings lately have been excellent. I am truly envious. Nice, nice work.
Thanks. That means a lot coming from one of my favorite bloggers. (Way to use one of the new possible sets of initials!)
