Carlos Quentin has been playing for weeks now, but Zack Greinke will finally return to the Dodgers tonight, against Washington: Zack Greinke insists he's not rushing his return because his highly touted team is in last place. The Los Angeles Dodgers announced Tuesday that Greinke will come off the disabled list and face the Washington Nationals on Wednesday night, 4½ weeks after fracturing his left collarbone in a fight with San Diego Padres outfielder Carlos Quentin and more than three weeks ahead of the original timetable. "I would think if everyone in baseball had the same feeling I do...

These afternoon games are so hard for me to follow. I have to record them and watch them later in the evening. I just now finished tonight's game. It was a good experience for me. First I got to fast forward through all the commercials I've seen a billion times and then I got to witness a comeback win. I was enjoying myself so much I didn't even peek at the score and was genuinely surprised when the Padres won. Here's how it happened. 2nd inning Carlos Quentin homered to left field.

It was a perfect afternoon here in San Diego and I can't believe I just ruined it by watching four hours of indoor baseball. Oh well. It was fun in the first inning when Will Venable and Carlos Quentin hit home runs to give the Padres a 2-0 lead. In the 3rd, Venable struck out but hustled to first on a dropped third strike.

The Padres scored a billion runs off the Cubs tonight. It's what happens when everybody in the starting lineup gets a hit, including the pitcher. Yonder Alonso, Carlos Quentin, and Nick Hundley led the way with a trio of home runs. They were also three of five Padres with a multi-hit night. It wasn't all rainbows and sunshine, though: Robbie Erlin finally made his major league debut in the 9th only to get roughed up by ex-Padres Cody Ransom and Anthony Rizzo. Ransom hit a solo home run to left field, continuing his sudden display of competency, and Rizzo hit an RBI double to right. Of ...
