PrintMiami Marlins at Pittsburgh Pirates, Apr 21, 2008 7:05 PM EDT
The NL East Leading Marlins are in Pittsburgh to take on the Pirates in a two-game series.
We are trying the new stats thingy today, so we will see how it goes.
Hendrickson is going for his fourth straight victory, something he has never achieved before in his career. But if this year is about anything, it's about breaking those kind of streaks. Hopefully, Mark will be able to pitch into the sixth or beyond.
Morris hasn't been the Matt Morris of old. He is having trouble locating pitches and the ones he does locate are catching a lot of the plate. With any luck, the trend will continue.
The Marlins the last few years have had some trouble winning in Pittsburgh, but as I said, this year is about breaking all those old streaks.
Ichthyomancy is ready to go. And best of luck to everyone.

WTF! No S FL TV Mon and Fri
"This will all end in tears, I just know it."
According to Rich and Tommy...
Hanley has hit a homerun in 3 of his last 4 at-bats (before Hanley batted in the 4th inning)
Gotta Love It
I think Len Casper might have been the best Marlin sent to the Cubbies, but Rich’s HR & walk-off calls are starting to grow on me
