    A pitchers' duel favors Atlanta, since their offense > our offense. :mad:

    How long can Roger go at this point? Can he go seven innings?

    Ironic... since you would think in a pitcher's duel... you'd want the better pitching team that is used to more low-scoring games (ie - the better pitching team).

    lol... no surprise here... Roger pitches and we're being no-hit through 4.

    Our bats just go into hibernation when Clemens pitches, it's so frustrating.

    I remember back in the 2004 playoffs, when ESPN was making such a huge deal of interviewing his dad at MMP... and trying to coax him out of an awful slump.

    That whole thing was creating a story out of nothing... a non-story... a waste of time (especially since there were a few more compelling things they could have focused on: 36-10, Clemens, the beee noise, Jeff Kent's p*rn-stache, Phil Garner's wife... etc. etc. etc.)

    He has him stealing third instead of having moved him over.

    You answered your own question. Even though he's inept... Ausmus has a better chance of driving in the run from 2nd with 0 out, then Roger has of driving it in with 1 out.

    Phil's gambling isn't working thus far... but at least we got a hit.
