Adam Mathews already with a sprained right ankle.
Cocks have already surrendered 3 in the first.
This might be a long day for Carolina. A lot of baseball still to play, though.

That's the problem with relying soley on offense.
Defense wins championships. Look all the great MLB teams. That’s why the NY Yankees could win a World Series in 10 years even with the largest pay roll. You need pitching.
