Gavin Floyd hasn't snapped off a start this good in April since 2008, if you count a 4 walk, 0 ER, 7.1 IP outing as equal to this 1 run outing.

PK14 with the hat tip to Walker for some tips from batting practice today.

G! GB15! PK14!

In 2009, Gavin Floyd's first >7 IP,

If you have never eaten at a Taco Johns, I would suggest getting to Iowa sometime in the very near future. If you gave me that list, I'd choose Jimmy Johns every single time.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 03:55 PM) Let Gavin go one more, and then have Pena close it up. Did Matty pitch last night? I wouldn't be all that mad giving him a chance to, maybe, get the taste of that last game out of his mouth.

G > TB.

Maddon might get thrown out but the "Out" is 100% the right call there. 6 innings of 1 run ball for G!. Usually he doesn't snap off a start like this until late May.

Oh man that's a terrible call by Eddings if it stands.

The Chicago Bulls have won 60 games.

60

Holy **** what a shot.

I take it the Captain hit a 2nd while I was watching the Bulls?

Clutch, clutch rebound by Deng. This team just keeps figuring out ways to close out games with a W.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 03:21 PM) Rose will soon be a top three player in the NBA...kid is amazing. He's not there already? I don't know who you rank clearly ahead of him. Maybe James, maybe Howard, maybe Bryant, depends a bit on your team.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 03:20 PM) I was reading somewhere that no matter what happens for the rest of the season the HCA in the final (if Spurs and Bulls make it) will depend on a random draw. You misread. That is only the case if the Bulls and Spurs finish with exactly the same record. Right now, the Bulls are 1.5 games behind the Spurs. The Bulls have to win today and make up another game in the standings for it to come down to a random draw.

QUOTE (peanut33tillman @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 03:18 PM) He sure did, game still alot of implications riding on it, would love to see the Bulls with HCA over the West Conference teams as well. Odds of the Bulls getting that over the Spurs are slim/none, they're just too far ahead.

G! K's the side in the 4th.

Omar needs to never take the cowboy hat off;.

Gavin is rolling right now.

Well, there's a curve ball.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 02:38 PM) Excellent...steal 2nd Stellar throw by Shoppach, but there were times when Pierre would still have stolen that.

Pierre continues off to an excellent start.

QUOTE (ChrisLikesBaseball @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 02:35 PM) I have CSN on and there's no commentary. Very strange. It's working fine on CSN for me, through DirecTV.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 10, 2011 -> 02:28 PM) Gavin doesn't look very good so far. Thrown one offspeed pitch for a strike. Still quite a bit sharper than last time out though. Last time out he didn't have the breaking ball at all and it took 2 innings or so for him to stop throwing it.
