Woody: Eight pitches, eight strikes, three outs. Nady gets the start at third tonight.
This is Miller’s first start of the year. No SDSU pitcher has worked fewer innings. Three up, three down.
Nady gets plunked. New Aztec pitcher looks like he’s watched Ollie Perez a few times.
Woody through 4 innings: 43 pitches, 37 strikes. Don’t worry about me; I talk to myself all the time.
Bob Scanlan working the TV side with Mark Grant. Scanlan is pretty good. Where has he been and do we get more of him this year?
Linebrink: TV has his fastballs at 91-94 mph.
Giles crushed that pitch. Off the base of the wall in right. Looked like a homer off the bat.
Pads win, 6-0. We’ll have to do this again someday. Maybe next time I’ll even give folks a little advance warning.
In other news, the hot dogs at PetCo no longer suck. The line I stood in, however, still took over an inning to get through.
Richard: Thanks for saving me from myself. Good to hear things are at least headed in the right direction in the hot dog dep’t. Baby steps…
Woody Williams looked nasty. Maybe it was his competition, but his pitches were breaking really well. He just needs to imagine every team we face is a college team that can’t touch his stuff, and everything’s going to be great.
Awesome to hear that the dogs no longer taste like they were warmed under an armpit for five minutes before being served (I think that’s what you meant, Richard).
Funny about the Perez comment. I was going on to my buddy watching the game that the guy was the spitting image of Ollie. We should have charged the mound when the second Padre got hit. ; )~
Forgot to add: DJ looked awesome in center field. I’d really rather have him on the team over Blum, he’s so versatile, and a better fit out there defensively than Nady. He got very good jumps on balls, and seemed to have good range.
SDSU’s CF made a fine catch as well, with the RF taking his feet from under him. I swear, if that was me taking that fall, I wouldn’t walk for weeks. To be young again…
Jeff: I was impressed with Woody. I know it was college guys, but he was locating well and everything had movement. As for the guy doing the Ollie impression, I thought it might just be me but I kept watching him and he kept doing it. He had the delivery down pretty good.
