Here we go! The Mighty Conner in the cleanup spot, and Play Him One More Time Suwinski in CF. I guess you can't give up on his power. By the way this is Jordan Wicks's MLB debut, and he is doing it against Murder's Row of the Bucs.

Suwinski starts against a lefty
Would have been better off going with Bae. At least he can bunt

[Wildwoodcoach]

Endy catching tonight probably means he won't catch
tomorrow's day game. This means he will have caught
only 2 games of the series. Ridiculous !!

[Ecbucs]

is Selby another opener?

[Doc]

I know he struggled, like many first year players do but, I would rather see Nick Gonzales in the line-up playing 2nd base, with Peguero at SS instead of Williams.

Brown and Walk are doing the radio. They're usually better on radio when they aren't frequently on camera and trying to be funny.

I agree. I just don't think Williams is part of the future.

[Possum]

Selby gets Happ on a fly ball.

[Bobster]

Welcome to MLB, Wicks! 1-0 Bucs.

Right, which makes it frustrating to see him on the field. Why waste the at bats?
