Let's get this. End thr first half of the season with a high note and build some momentum for the 2nd half of the season.

SCTrojan · 07-09-2006, 11:29 AM

Gonna be a tough one going up against Hallday. Let's hope Gobble keeps it close, the offense works Halladay's pitch count up and they get to the bullpen. Of course, that didn't help yesterday.

I don't think so. There is a ESPN message board there, but I doubt that it's worth a shit.
