Loading... Good game by Worley. Extra innings. It really is Opening Day, Part II.
Baseball's back! Again!
Did you miss it? I'll bet you did.
Worley takes on Jake Peavey today. The Vanimal has been pretty dreadful so far, but that .455 BABIP will probably come down at some point. Even if it doesn't, he's only affecting one game out of five. The guy we traded him for isn't doing a lot better, and he's in every game.
I'm predicting a 13-0 away team victory.
