Morning post. 

Morning post.

So before I go into last night's game, I want to make it clear that this blog will be a very very ADHD blog. I'm not going to cover every single game like JIm does so well at the Snakepit. I'm a dedicated fan, but I'm not that dedicated of a blogger. So what you will get is a very very skewed take on the diamondbacks. Anyway. for the next month or so, I'm pretty much going to be throwing crap at a board and seeing what will stick.

Well, getting on with things, it appears the baseball gods have blessed us with a glorious rain delay filled game. And a win. Amen. I didn't get a chance to catch the game. (don't have cable right now. I'm a poor college student. Thank god I'm getting it in August though. )

Over in the AL I caught this bit courtesy of the Associated Press...

Los Angeles shortstop Orlando Cabrera went 0 for 4, ending his streak of reaching base safely in 63 consecutive games - the longest run in the majors since at least 1960. Ted Williams holds the record with 84 straight games in 1949.

After Mark Kotsay doubled to start the bottom of the first inning, Lackey recorded 27 consecutive outs to finish the game in 2 hours, 1 minute. Zito lost his third straight start for his longest losing streak since dropping five in a row from Sept. 22, 2004, to April 25, 2005.-

Quite Impressive.

Comment Hi, Zephon! Welcome to the blogiverse! All the best for your new little baby, I've posted a link over at the SnakePit, and will also plug it in today's thread. Delighted to see a new D'blog: may it be as much fun for you, as mine is for me. [And congrats on the impending marriage, too!]
