What’s Wrong With This Picture?
Take a beautiful Albuquerque evening, at Isotopes Park, let the winds
calm down, play back and forth ball, get to the end the ninth inning tied 4-4
with the Memphis Redbirds.
After enjoying the between innings promotional events
and the antics of
the huggable Orbit, winner of best mascot in all of Minor League baseball contest.
Hang out in the dugout with Tony Gwynn eating sunflower seeds and analyzing the game on an off night.
Get the Birds out in the top of the tenth inning on the relief pitching
of Australian native Peter Moylan, who pitched two no-hit innings.
Bring to bat Isotopes First Baseman Scott Van Slyke, let him get on
base, this time by way of a walk.
Earlier in the game Van Slyke was face down in the mud, hit in the left
hand by a pitched ball.
Catcher Tim Federowicz, who had already hit two doubles, scoring two
runs, takes a pitch and with a mighty swing places it in the Redbirds bullpen.
The Isotopes bench gathers around Home Plate to greet Van Slyke and
Federowicz.
