The NL East Leading Marlins are looking to complete their second sweep in as many series.

Olsen has gone seven innings or more in five of his last six starts.  Really the big thing for Ollie is to somehow deal with getting up early and the fact, he is pitching with a big orange fireball in the sky.  Scott is a creature of the night, in case you didn't know.

Hill has pitched reasonably well this season but doesn't have much to show for it.  He is a better pitcher at home and shines during day games.  The Marlins faced him earlier in the season at JRS and did pretty well against him.

Ichthyomancy is still hating day games.  But is ready to log your picks for today's game, so Good Luck!

Olsen
Game: 1 HR with a pink bat

by LadyFish on May 11, 2008 9:09 AM EDT   0 recs

We know that Hermida hit his home run with a pink bat....

Danny’s two home runs were not with a pink bat, so far so good for your AAB pick. Now, we just need to find out what type of bat was used in Boone’s and Belliards’ home runs.

It was a really neat theme of the day AAB pick but it probably would’ve been better if the game had been televised.

Hermida hit a homerun with a pink bat…

by FSUMarlins on May 12, 2008 9:27 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yes he did...

and he is actually lobbying to keep using it.

The league however wants him to sign it and auction it off.

by craig on May 12, 2008 9:45 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Only One Pink Bat

The Nats website has videos of both homeruns. Neither used a pink bat.

first four in the lineup combine for the cycle. (not the first time through, its for throughout the game)

by Fluxuation on May 11, 2008 1:22 PM EDT   0 recs

are you kidding me?

how hot is uggla right now? mashing… and that hermida shot was sweet… man i wish this game was on tv right now

by Matt Wilson on May 11, 2008 3:28 PM EDT   0 recs

the score here says 5 – 4 but im watching the gamecast on espn and its still 4 – 4…. is espn lagging or is there an error on here?

by fishstick on May 11, 2008 3:29 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

there's my answer....

espn gamcast lags that’s upsetting.

by fishstick on May 11, 2008 3:30 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

mlb.com

i think is probably the quickest updating, espn is definitely behind. and i think mlb.com has a pretty cool interface. (every pitch is tracked and has a speed)

by GMFB on May 11, 2008 3:35 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

mlb.com

they have probably the most complete gamecast, especially with the video highlights. it does lag sometimes though. cbs sportsline is generally very fast and up-to-date.

by Matt Wilson on May 11, 2008 3:39 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

good grief

7 straight games, two straight sweeps, locking up our superstar long-term…
who cares if nobody on television notices… it’s a good time to be a fish fan

by Matt Wilson on May 11, 2008 3:54 PM EDT   0 recs

as of this moment...

we have the BEST RECORD IN BASEBALL. We’ll see what happens tonight with the D-backs and Red Sox

...when we lead off Sportscenter!

25% of the season is complete

and we are in first place with the best record in baseball. Life is good!

by SprintSTboy on May 11, 2008 10:12 PM EDT   0 recs

Best Record what?

I can’t believe this. I realize it’s early and its a looooong 162 game season, but who in their right mind would have ever believed that the marlins would ever have the best record in baseball? whether its 5 games in, 20 games in, or 37 games in?!! we are 9 games over .500. Insanity!!! i Love this team.

And everything i ever said about Uggla i retract. playing out of his head. that must be some really good creatine he’s using….

the Marlins had no errors, no?

by The Architect on May 12, 2008 9:56 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

No

Alfredo was charged with an error in center field. That is, unless, they have changed the scoring.
