I honestly thought that this season would early on be the reverse of the losing pattern from last year, with the Rockies' offense doing its fair share and the pitching disappointing. Well, it's just like before. Can't any of these guys hit? We'll get another look at Arizona starting tonight. Pitching matchups are Webb-Fogg, Cook-Hernandez, and Lopez-Davis.

I'm supremely grateful for the eleventh-hour agreement that got the Extra Innings package back on digital cable. Otherwise I wouldn't have been watching the Twins-Rays game from the other night and I would have missed one of the worst baserunning plays I've ever seen.
