The Ironpigs have finished their first 4 game set of the season and did not get swept! That has a nice sound to it. They are also playing hard ball this year as the hits and runs are a plenty. Although the bullpen has some catching up to do, which I anticipate will happen shortly. Remember, these Pigs are made of Iron and it takes some oil to get off the rust….
Only 2 days away from the Home Opener here in the Lehigh Valley. We’ve waiting all winter for this day! I just checked their website and it appears tickets are still available for the game Wednesday. I’m sure it will sell out by gametime but it surprises me that it hasn’t already. A sign of the future or just an anomoly? Or could it be that the Reading Phillies announced a showdown of former Phillies prospect Kyle Drabek against Phillipe Aumont (aquired from Seattle in the Cliff Lee trade) on Wednesday in Reading. I have to say even I am tempted to go to that game instead. I won’t.. but I was tempted!
Good stuff ahead. The Pigs play their first evening game tonight in Pawtucket and you can only hope that in the colder weather no injuries will happen.
Looking forward to a heavy hitting, hard throwing and healthy 2010 Ironpig team’s arrival on Wednesday!
2 days…

It’d be nice to cut down on the errors, too…
I have confidence that they will. Most players on this team are known as good fielders, if I’m not mistaken.
I believe they are all good fielders but what worries me is the “Pascucci” syndrome where the level of play is proportionate to the player’s enthusiam to be on the team.
Fair enough. I hope the home field can help. I know playing in front of 10k in Allentown is different from playing in front of 40k in south Philly–but it’s also different from playing in front of 187 in Syracuse NY. C’mon fellas!
