Thank goodness for that.

And check out the fancy new game page by clicking the "Milwaukee Brewers @ San Francisco Giants"-link up there. Very cool.

Not cool: This game probably isn't going to start for a couple of hours, and that's if it starts at all. Grrgh.

Hopefully...

we can have Lincecum warm up, sit down for 2 hours, warm up, throw 1 inning, sit down for 2 hours and warm up again. That was fun last year.

If I remember correctly, there’s supposed to be a real-time box score in it when the game starts.

Also if I remember correctly: the Yahoo! scoreboard page will have running feeds of GameThread comments. Yeah, that will last about two innings, until the first “Fuck Velez in his locust face!” hits the Yahoo! feed.

I am a cynic. But I see improvement in this year’s team. I’m excited.

My son has a JV game right now against Pedroia/Torcato’s old High School, and later against their old coach, but I am home.
