ChiSox! It's been awhile, eh?

Welcome back, since I liked your last season log so much, I'll follow this one!

Thanks, man! I might do the newspaper thing again but we'll see... since I primarily want to do this from my iPad, I may not

It would be difficult on an iPad...

lol Exactly. That being said, I can always do it on the computer. We'll see... I really wanna try that again

Yeah! It was cool, and fresh!

So I've decided, I will bring back the newspaper/magazine look starting next series.

Looking good so far! Nice job!

Sweet! Looking forward to it!

Wow... AWESOME! I loved that newspaper look. I would do it for my log, but I have no clue how.

The Diamondbacks are heading to Colorado for their next series!

You're playing every game? Won't that get to be a little much? But good job so far!

That's why I was considering not doing the newspaper thing and posting everything from my iPad. Because my iPad is always with me, it'd be MUCH easier. Maybe I won't do that after all. I can still post a quality log without that

Arizona Diamondbacks (3-0) @ Colorado Rockies (0-3)
Micah Owings (0-0, 0.00) vs. Kip Wells (0-1, 9.00)

DENVER -- After this game the D-Backs were very confused as to how the Rockies were winless up until this point. Other than closer Brian Fuentes' 7.71 ERA, the team looked pretty good. Starting pitcher Micah Owings was chased after four innings, allowing five runs on ten hits. The bullpen was slightly better as Medders and Pena combined for two runs on five hits in four innings. The lone Arizona run was scored by Orlando Hudson on a Conor Jackson RBI single in the third inning. Colorado was assisted by homers from Todd Helton and Clint Barmes.

Final Score: Rockies 7, Diamondbacks 1
