Why is Liuzza not starting, did Weaver beat him out?

Scotty,
I don't have any inside scoop, but I can assure you that Liuzza will be THE MAN behind the plate again this year. My guess is that Dustin is one of those "Rudy" kind of guys. Have to give him total respect for basically sitting the bench and then giving 100% when Smoke let's him play, typically in non-important games. He's a first class kid!

Hey! Three run HR by Stavinoha!

Yep, another HR. That's 3 tonight. Crankin out the runs.

Is the long ball back???

I don't want to get optimistic because Nicholls' pitching is probably the "worst" we're gonna see this season, but I think this team may have a lot of pop in their bats!!!

Agree. We should sweep this weekend.

Tigers showing a little power tonight. Why in the Hell is Patterson not starting. Damn we have a lot of depth on this team.
