On Opening Day, these two teams meet in a game that counts. Today's game is slightly less important, but a win will help the Brewers keep pace with the 4-0 Cubs for the Cactus League lead.
Today, it's Dave Bush, who was perfect in one inning of work Wednesday, against Tim Lincecum, who also threw a scoreless inning in his first Cactus League appearance. Game time is at 2:05.

Two center fielders?
Eric Gagne DL time: May 23-June 29 Brewers record in that span: 20-9

It's good strategy.
Lets see how good Duffy’s range is if he has to cover LF from CF.
How far will this one fly?

Huh
Yeah, I’d say odds are Duffy actually plays left.

I’ll put a dollar down that this is the opening day matchup.
No way Suppan opens the season…..he just…he can’t.

When's the first TV game?

Looks like it's the 23rd.
Sad, but hopefully I’m wrong. Link.

Three perfect innings for Lincecum
See you on Opening Day, Tim.

The fool!
He wasted all of his good pitches now. We’ll win opening day 10-5!

5 runs for the Giants sounds about right :)
Also, cheese.

Whoa, Francis Beltran was a major leaguer last year
I guess that keeps him in the running for the last active Expo title.

Are you excluding Vlad the Impaler from that group?
How far will this one fly?

There's quite a few 2004 Expos still around
I’m just surprised Francis Beltran is one of them.

Scott Thorman is absolutely tearing the cover off the ball this spring.
Former top prospects unite!
How far will this one fly?
