it's pedro for game three

Pedro Martinez will start game three tomorrow night in Denver. A high of 32F is forecast for the day, with snow and freezing rain showers. Game time temperature should be in the 20's. Oy vey. Game time Saturday is at 9:37 pm here on the East Coast; on Sunday it's 10:07. That means I won't be seeing much of either game. I can only wonder how long Pedro will last in the cold against the Rockies' lineup. He looked ready to rock, in a red cap and hoodie, at today's press conference, but the guy is going to be 38 later this month. On the other hand, Jamie Moyer made a valiant effort two years ago in a game three in Denver in similar weather conditions. Guess game three is 'old goat' time.
