Game 1: Monday @ 6:05 on FSMW (And possibly ESPN, hence the early start)
Game 2: Tuesday @ 7:15 on FSMW

Short two game series after this weekend's sweep. Facing a tough team, will be interesting to see if the Birds bounce back. I think, if Yahoo fantasy baseball notes are to be trusted, that Oswalt is coming off the DL to face us in Game 2 tomorrow night.

That could be a good thing or a bad thing. The guy is a vet, so he's going to be ready. But we can only hope there's some rust he needs to knock off, possibly to the tune of 5 IP, 6-7 ER. :mrgreen:

It was only 2 games, but a sweep's a sweep. Big two wins over a good team. Now they need to make sure they play just as hard against Houston.

I went to both of these games. Hadn't seen a win in my first 4 games, so this was nice. I was really worried that we were going to get swept coming off of the Reds sweep, so this was really nice to see.

And, Tyler Greene, wtf. :doh: If Punto hadn't gone on the DL today, I think Greene reserved his seat in Memphis when Skip comes back. That just can't happen.
