Memorial Night Baseball

Easy win by the Braves over Webb, but then the Nats lost in the 11th inning, and the Dodgers fall after having the bases loaded in the 8th, with just 1 out, and weren't able to get any runs across. Dodgers outhit the Cubs all day, except for when they had runners in scoring position (they must have been something like 1 for 15 with RISP). Tough beat, moving on to the night games. Frequent blog reader Rosie stole my thunder a little bit by posting these exact two plays in his comments on the previous post. I hope that's a good sign. Tonight, lines from Matchbook:

Marlins +123, 1 unit to win 1.23 units

Pretty even hitting match-up, but Pelfrey has been wild this season.

White Sox -101, 1.01 units to win 1 unit

Indians are in a serious hitting slump. Vazquez better than Byrd. That's worth paying the tiniest of juice. This was probably my favorite play when I did the homework last night, which means the Sox will probably lose by 10 runs.*
