Box Score Bytes - Game 34

1)  Little slow but since it is snowing today (!) and today's game postponed I figured I had the time...

2)  In the eighth inning last night when Rox were down by one run and had CarGo, Tulo, and Helton comng to the plate (and in fantasy land if the bases were loaded let's bring in Giambi and add his $128,555,000 lifetime earnings), approximately $395,696,000 came to the plate and what did Rox get for their money?  A high popfly to the shortstop, strikeout, and strikeout.  And this was against a 38 and 37 year old reliever.  And you wonder why we are having offensive woes...

3) Three homers and no base traffic...and we lose...

4)  Strangest sequence of the night...Crazy At Bat in Bottom of 7th. Fowler started the at bat against Pelfrey. During an extended at bat the umps called for a rain delay (the count was 2 and 2). After an hour delay Fowler comes back out to bat facing Isringhausen and proceeds to foul a pit off his left knee. Unable to complete the at bat in comes Spilborghs who works the count for a walk!
