Anyway, quick thoughts before I go:
1) Claussen, minus the one inning looked promising. It was a bad outing overall true but two things there was positive, he's got the strikout pitches working and he had control. His control looked WAY better than last year. We can just chalk this shaky start up to be rusty I imagine.
2) Poor Griffey. He's hit them hard tonight and had enough height, just lacked a few feet in length. I think he is going to start hitting them soon though, his bat speed looked pretty good against the heat.
3) No strikeouts for Wily Mo versus Prior. Prior being a righty with lethal stuff I was concerned to see him get Wily 2 or 3 times via K.
