If Mathews closes the game Saturday, starting Sunday will depend on how many pitches he threw and how he feels warming up. If he doesn’t pitch Saturday, expect him to be the Sunday starter.
Re “The Mighty Quinn” are you talking about the song or the movie?
The Bob Dylan song. My Dad was a Dylan fan, and his albums were regularly played on our car trips, which means that my brother and I were Bob Dylan fans too, up until about junior high school age or so.
I was at the game today and didn't get to see Quinn Mathews pitch, it was even better. In the middle of the sixth inning I left the chilly section of my assigned seat and went over to the visitors' area, and ended up meeting Mrs. Dowd, whose son started and got the win today. It was my first time at a Stanford baseball game in more than 16 years, so that was pretty neat. Yeah.
