Heading down I-5 last night, through the glacial (and a slow one at that) pace of traffic in and about Seattle, I got to listen to the whole game.
BTW, leaving Marysville at 12:03 (stopped for gas) it wasn't until 6:34 until we snuck past Chehallis. That's a total of 122 I-5 miles in 6.5 hours.
True story.
It took us more than 4 hours to go from north Seattle to Olympia. I don't believe I ever got to 25 MPH. Lots of dead stop. Then we broke out for a bit, well minutes....until we ran into 20 miles of inching along due to an "accident" (never saw it) in the right lane at Chehallis. Nearly 2.5 hours at that.
I am pretty sure that Kendrys Morales could have jogged the whole thing faster than we drove it.
I waved at you Seattle guys though.
But I did get to listen to the whole game.....and one of the radio guys, Rizzs, I think, comented on Paxton's pace on the mound. I give that my two thumbs up. I've heard radio/TV guys comment on that consistently lately.
And I'll bet you we see a WHOLE lot of Zunino behind the plate for Paxton from here on out....well, for most of the guys really.
Saddle Zeus up every five days. Make sure you put the spurs to him to keep his pace up. Enjoy the ride.
DId he throw the changeup much last night? Radio guys called one pitch (90 MPH) a Changeup. I'm assuming he threw a few more than that.
Get today's game. The world will seem decently bright in the morning if we do.
