    great patience for a major league debut. if i were him, I would be hacking trying to get my first hit. you can tell this guy is really there to help his team win, not help himself. i'm not sure who the commentators are, but they hit the nail on the head. "you can tell by that walk what a true professional this man is"

    I know Bruce shakes his wrists a lot when he sets up at the plate as he waits on the pitch. Is that what you were seeing?

    And just think they were skeptical on his ability to take a walk. Hopefully there is more of that to come.

    Double Steal! Nice!

    Griffey got out somehow, I missed while on the phone with my wife.

    Thanks for that man. I would think it would take a guy with nerves of steel not to be. Good start anyhow though. Hopefully he can settle in this game.

    Ball 4 to BP. They are loaded for Dunn. This could get nasty!

    EdE Ks swinging now. You have to be kidding me!

    Both teams leave them loaded. Ugly display there.

    PBP is out the window for me now. UGH!

    Bautista gets a double and Junior is slow.
