Jayson Werth gets it going by beating out an infield single and then perfectly reading a bloop Wes Helms single to get to third base with no out. Barajas is up.
Barajas strikes out looking. Mike from Seattle can probably hear the boos from there.
Aaron Rowand, pinch hitting for Kendrick, hits a soft grounder to third that drives Werth home. The score is now tied as Ozzie Guillen goes to lefty Matt Thornton to face Jimmy Rollins.
Rollins actually is hitting .301 as a righty, .282 as a lefty. His power numbers, though, are better as a lefty. He'll hit righthanded against Thornton.
Rollins walked; first and second, two outs. Victorino grounded out on a play that Jim Thome had to dig out of the dirt. Good job by the boys to take Kyle Kendrick off the hook. He'll get a no-decision. Ryan Madson is coming in.

It's OK, we know you meant Kendrick, not Danks. Unless there was a mid game trade?????

He is the worst I have ever seen. Makes me long for the days of Sal Fatsano

Let's just be thankful he didn't hit into a double play. He really needs to be sent down. Can be get Leiberthal back?

I hope they give Kendrick a round of applause. Not a bad start and probably better than what Freddy Garcia would have given them.

I think it's safe to say we'll never see a "Rod's Squad" in CBP.

BA Barajas needs to go to Ottawa. Eat his salary and bring Coste back up. I can deal with Ruiz and Coste.

I agree with the Coste for Barajas, he has very little and it seems like he swing for the fence all the time. Send him down.
