Bush booed at 2008 Nationals home opener

Just to mention i was happy at the Boo's Bush got on opening night at Nationals Park,They guy is a tyrant and a mass murderer...but hey thats just my opinion.

No word on Martinez's injury


The Indians had no news on catcher Victor Martinez on Tuesday morning.

Whether that's good news remains to be seen.

Martinez was taken in for an MRI after Monday's season opener to determine the severity of the left hamstring strain he suffered while running the bases in the second inning.On Tuesday, the Tribe did not offer any information about the results of the MRI, though media relations director Bart Swain said the team is not currently contemplating a roster move involving Martinez. Martinez, who went 2-for-2 with a run scored and an RBI on Monday, injured the hamstring while trying to advance from first to second on a pitch in the dirt. He didn't even make it to the bag, pulling up lame and tumbling awkwardly to the ground. He was tagged for the final out of the inning and had to be helped off the field.

But the Game of the night was Pittsburg Pirates at Atlanta Braves,With 3 extra inning having to be played to decide a winner.Xavier Nady hit his second homer of the game, a three-run shot in the 12th inning, and the Pittsburgh Pirates overcame a horrific ninth and another potential collapse for a 12-11 win Monday night, ruining Atlanta's home opener.


So the season has started off with some great games and lots of runs in both AL and NL Leagues,If this is a taste of whats to come then i cant wait for more.
