    Wow, not a single comment? Every other game thread in the world must be very active today.

    I was at work, stuck behind the firewall. I can read Trent’s blog from the office, but I can’t post.

    Nice come-from-behind win.

    Sorry RHM,
    but I was at the game…
    spent several innings in the Riverfront club bar staying warm.
    (by the way Makers Mark and Hofbrau don’t mix too well)

    We then went back outside to see Hatte’s homer and Stormy close it.

    Nice to witness a win for a change. Was 0-4 last season.

    It’s, like 35F in the Bronx. And A-Rod isn’t wearing any sleeves. But the Rays are wearing those balaclava things. They look like they’re getting ready to rob a bank or something. 😀

    It’s just as cold in Louisville. I hope Bubba remembered to pack some long underwear.

    And Livingston has already given up a two-run homer…

    Mmmm….baklava

    Not baklava! [img]http://www.red-hot-mama.com/images/emoticons/pm/rolleyes.gif[/img]

    Bubba just hit a double to right field. The announcers said the ball died on the grass and Bubba “threw on the brakes at 2B.” Um…he was thinking of going to 3B? How big is right field in Louisville, anyway?

    And the Bats announcers remember Bubba doing a lot of damage to the Bats when he was a Clipper…
