I'll be back with more later, but I'd like to thank John Perricone over at Only Baseball Matters for linking and mentioning us over at his site. It's frequently updated, informative and well-written, and if by some chance you haven't been over there and are reading this...you're missing out. I'm swimming in baseball in the early days of the season. I watched the Rockies-Diamondbacks game earlier today, and am now digging in for Red Sox-Orioles (television) and Yankees-Devil Rays (computer). I'd really like to watch David Cone's first start back...but I can always get to that later on tonight, and probably will. - Shawn Chacon was awesome today at Coors Field. He was perfect through five and a third...until it was taken out of his hands. The stands guy (there frequently seems to be one guy on the broadcast team whose job is to walk around the stands and talk to people who stand out or are famous) happened upon Kurtwood Smith (Red) and Debra Jo Rupp (Kitty) of That '70s Show. They explained how they came down to Coors Field to catch a game...nothing important, just usual celebrity banter. At this point, Smith decided to point out that Chacon was pitching a no-hitter (of course, it was even more than that). The broadcasters immediately pointed out that they weren't supposed to say anything, as it'd jinx Chacon and his no-hitter would end. Within seconds, Chad Moeller had hit a ground-rule double. - |
