Kinsler has gotten off to a very nice start at the plate thus far
Upton has now k'd 6 times in 13 at bats to start the season
Hicks with a diving catch in right center robbing miggy of a hit to end the 3rd

McCann was blasted last year compared to Avila because he sucked at framing and having that connection with the pitchers. Know it's super early, but he looks MUCH better.

yes...it is VERY early. He has only caught 14 innings
 
Radio broadcast team said Gose will be playing much deeper in center this year.
 
What a waste. McCann has to move the Damn runner over on second with no outs .
Cost his team a easy run. Fudge could have put them away :/
