Rain out
With the Yankees game being postponed tonight, here is a look at the rotation the next couple of days:
Thursday vs TOR, Hughes
Friday vs BOS, Pettitte
Saturday vs BOS, Igawa/Karstens
Sunday vs BOS, Wang
Also, with the Yankees off tonight, and the luxury of the MLB package, I had a chance to watch the Atlanta/Florida game. The Braves led 3-0 the entire game (from the 2nd on) until the bottom of the ninth. Bobby Cox left Tim Hudson in and after a single in the ninth he let him stay in. After another single in the ninth, Hudson still in. Another single, still in. So, after Hudson loaded the bases with no outs, Cox brought Wickman in, who gave up a double, got a strikeout, gave up a single, and then threw a wild pitch that ended the game. Good managerial skills by Bobby Cox bringing the closer in with the bases loaded and no outs rather than a clean slate in the ninth. Bobby Cox deserved to lose the game after those decisions.
Second consecutive post by a blogger about this. Sounded like an interesting game.

The way that that game ended was a crying shame for not only Braves fans but baseball fans in general.
Huddy came into that game 3 and 0 with an era under 0.69 and dominated that game until the 9th inning.
What a shame he didnt get the win that he deserved and that he didnt get to keep his microscopic ERA down under 1.00.
