Don’t expect much to happen until each team goes once through the lineup.

Chalk this up

Chalk this up for Steve Stone so far. He said last year he thought Marshall would be better than Hill in the long run.

Baserunning not much better.

Marhsall’s at least got he exucse that he wasn’t sure it was fair, but Theriot should’ve been running hard regardless. That’s a really bad baserunning error.

Sean

I remember what used to infuriate me about Marshall, it was the number of pitches he would rack up. He’s already over 70 pitches in the fourth inning. He could never get out of the sixth inning. I just wish he could get the same results in fewer pitches and get deeper into the games.
