Gonzalez, Greene Ruin Big Unit’s Return
That was fun. Two old guys serving up meat, and plenty of it? What’s not to love. Randy Johnson made his 2007 debut and looked a bit rusty. He had the good stuff, but his command wasn’t quite there and the Padres took advantage. Jose Cruz Jr., Adrian Gonzalez, and Khalil Greene all had field [...]
