It's Good to Beat the Giants

All I can say is it's good to beat the Giants! Not only that, we may have found a solid number 3 pitcher in Aaron Sele. Who would have thunk it. Aaron Sele, the man sent down to AAA at the conclusion of Spring Training comes roaring back in a big way.

He was just awesome. Sele went a strong 6 innings, giving up 4 hits while surrendering 1 run. He also had 7 strike outs. Seven strike outs! This was his 6th straight win at Dodger Stadium as Aaron Sele can now be comfortable called a home team pitcher.

Now we get to take a break and allow our old knees, aching backs and throbbing arms some rest. Kent can take a few more days off to get better. Lofton can rest his legs. Our rookies can go home for a brief period to share their joy with their families. In fact, all our rookies who have been up this year deserve a pat on the back for their strong play this first half. We wouldn't be anywhere near where we are right now if it were not for them.

Good luck to Nomar and Penny in the All Star Game. Let's all root for a strong showing for them both.

Go Blue!
